This is not a robot competition, but the
Car and Driver magazine article (may 2008 issue) from the 2007 event at Flat-Rock race mentions some participants being
"nerds taking a break from robot competitions". I doubt that I am the only FIRST mentor that thinks that participating in a 24 hour race with a $500 car sounds like fun, so are there any other FIRST people going to Toledo this year? If so, look me up. I will be competing on the Latchkey Kids again and we will be using the Chia-Neon for its 3rd Lemons race. We will be number 17 (just in case a green and brown Neon with Astro-turf racing stripes is not a good enough description).
