The Shop Girls and the Urban Concept cars from Granite Falls, Washington HS are on their way to Houston for the 2012
Shell Eco Marathon. I'll try to keep up to date when I receive info from the team.

I haven't heard from The Granite Falls group as they tackle the world from Texas but Michael did post under their own build diary. I did receive a message from Ray Therat telling us that he made a post this morning. Check it out. http://www.target550.com/gallery/166_going_back_together/index.htmlFREUD |

Sabat......Thanks for the interest. It is getting exciting to me as it goes back together.
I think there will be major action early this fall. That means testing.

I have a thought. I can`t help but wonder what will happen to the thousands of Clecos after final assembly. I am running low on these at the Shop, and wonder if having Clecos with such an impressive provenance can`t help but scare the shhetmetal parts into submission.....  |

I thought these guys had cornered the world market! The global shortage may have even delayed the Boeing Dreamliner! But they put them to much better use! |
