Maybe there was an internal order like: Only one team of each design queue should make it into the semis?

Thought that was always the case....whether a written rule or not....which I am sure in the past means some queue has more than 1 deserving car while some might have none, but the not so good might make it since they don't have the room in other queue.... </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

This year we were in design queue F, also did FEI and RIT... we got 118 (2 points away from semis), FEI got 117 i think, i dont know how much RIT got but didnt make it to semis... not a single team from queue F passed to design semifinals

I posted this link earlier, but have since updated and cropped some of the photos in the album. Send me an e-mail if you want the hi-res versions. Or tag yourself in your teams photos.

Any results from Autocross? Endurance group numbers?

Maybe the UTA guys would like to check out this photo. Check the photo album, photos were taken with a very very old camera

[RiNaZ]

Does the twitter page has any pics?

For those who have waited for some eye candy, here is Michigan Ann Arbor's 3.766 second acceleration run in high def:

We took plenty of high def acceleration videos for many other teams (not all unfortunately), however youtube likes to take its time uploading and processing HD videos. If anyone has any requests for their team's video please contact myself and an effort will be made to get it up on youtube and the video files in your hands for promotional use.

Congrats to Michigan Ann Arbor for winning the 2010 Acceleration Event!

I finally got ahold of one of our guys camers that had pictures from autoX and endurance.

was definitely a fun competition. congrats to everyone who competed.

and we cant thank Kanagawa enough for the starter clutch for the 450x. without that we wouldnt have been able to even get through noise/brake. granted our engine wasnt tuned quite right (whose is?) but we did manage to complete everything and get 3rd in economy.
