Re: Score Discussion
-36 is very achievable with a 20cm gap. I expect there are several teams that will not score also by hitting the tin cans going for the win (like rollercoaster last year going for the biggest jumps). I am getting -10 or better consistantly on our first days of practice so I would hope 20th at nations is better than -12. Accuracy will be more of a challenge this year.

Re: Score Discussion
-23 should win NC states. Wouldn't be surprised if a school like Piedmont beat it though.AugustW wrote:My buggy is getting a score of around -17, with occasional -23 scores. Is this very competitive at North Carolina state tournament?

Re: Score Discussion
My car is getting 4-5 second times and around 8 or less cm off target. My gap is 13 inches, which is a bonus of 33cm. Thanks, is there any way to go to nationals if your school is not going? I do not think so, but I was just wondering. I also think that I did the math right to get a score of -17. If I didn't plz let me know. Thank you. Also, how do you get invited to an invitational?

Assuming a 4.5 sec time, 8 cm off, and 33 cm bonus, that is negative 26 (good job!AugustW wrote:My car is getting 4-5 second times and around 8 or less cm off target.
