What did we do?

We know that we can get the best performance out of our kart when the engine is running at 6100 revolutions per minute (RPM). We get three practice runs before a race, so we tried out 3 different gears. We recorded the peak RPM for each trial from the reading on the kart's computer. We also measured lap time, since that's how you win. Our goal was a 39 second lap time. On your mark, get set, GO! more...
