Re: Tank Track

I think there are around twenty something teams, not sure on the exact number but i am fairly sure there are under 30. Shipping is the major killer we order US$600 worth of parts which end up costing us around NZ$1000 add on top of that NZ$600 worth of shipping (if we ordered it ourselves luckily we can add our stuff in with the university that runs it) But it makes it almost impossible to order without pooling our orders together at least for our team and the limited funds we have. We do however have a very supportive school that will cover the costs while we fund raise.
