Topic: Sears Pointless - I think we're in good shape.
Teammate and fellow Killer ZomBee Pilot Peter "Gargamel" Secor (formerly of the infamous 1200 penalty lap Dead Smurfs) summed up our Sunday afternoon best with this summary on his blog;
"Alas, the engine that served us well through a couple races and several barrel rolls finally wheezed out its last the other day. Today was engine surgery time, and the steady hands of Pete and Jesse excised the old lump and started performing replacement surgery. Two weeks to go, hope we make it!"
It's amazing how much lighter the car is without a starter, alternator or motor. We simultaneously began thinking of giant rubber bands, JATO rockets and of course Rodents on Steroids.
Hypothetical question: Would said rodents be subject to doping tests?
