Story from the local news about our team's second modified car project for Easter Seals kids. First was a Barbie Power Wheels Jeep we modified for joystick control, this one was a battery powered go kart that we adapted for remote control. This is a fantastic opportunity for us to show both our students and the community what an impact FIRST can have.

there are times I wish we could do that

Its not as hard as you might think - the same skills and parts we use on the robots can be applied to these projects, and it shows the students a real-world application of what they learn. Contact your local Easter Seals and ask if you can help!
