Crating Up!

The 2013 Moonbuggy was crated and shipped today for next week's NASA Moonbuggy Race!

We Have Lift Off!

The first rides of the new buggy and a few (hopefully) minor tweaks to make sure everything is running smoothly.

It Even Looks Faster

Almost there!  Side by side with last year's moonbuggy the new one even looks faster.  I just hope it handles the rigors of the course!

Wheel Meets Scissor Lift

During practice today our team was taking the old moonbuggy through it's paces for training and the pilot clipped the Scissor Lift with a wheel.  The scissor lift won.
