Driving Test~

Now it's time for driving test.The purpose of this test is for the NEW drivers to experience driving the vehicle before the competition.First off, let's introduce our 2 new pretty and beautiful drivers! 

Introducing Mei Ling (left) and Nicole (right) fully geared up for today's challenge!

But before going for driving test , all disassemble parts must be install back on to the vehicle.So, the process will be shown in the following pictures.

Guys checking and double checking and triple checking the vehicle.
Make sure it's safe to drive.

Seriously if you're there,the situation look like a professional team that take care of the vehicle's maintenance.

Right, reached the testing area. Everyone is being briefed about their position.

Workshop before Drive Test!!

Right after so long since the last post, we're gonna update you guys about the activities we've done the whole last week!!After the transmission team disassemble the parts from the vehicle , the engine team starts working on their engine as well. Engine testing is done while the transmission and also the steering team work on the prototype before each of the parts is fabricated.Many great ideas came along and we managed to pick the BEST! Can't wait to let you guys see the product of it!

Now let's to get to the pictures for clearer view on our jobs and achievements! :)

First up, Engine Team!

"Peace" says the leader!

What's wrong??Hmm...

Listening to words of advice from Team Manager (KY)
