2000 B*E*S*T Race Day Results

2000 Electric Car Race Results

Speed, Maneuverability and Endurance trials were held on the 1/4 mile track at Armstrong High School on May 20, 2000

Drag Race: 3 heats of 3 or 4 cars ran a side-by-side 100 yard race followed by a final race for the 4 fastest cars.
Slalom Race: each car was timed as it zig-zagged through cones that were 10 yards apart, made a U-turn at the end, and zig-zagged back to the start.
Endurance Race: teams tried to complete the most laps in 45 minutes around the 1/4 mile track, pulling into the pits and changing drivers on each lap.
Merit Award: a committee of students, one from each class, chose a special award that was presented to each team.
