On Monday the 9th the Totara syndicate had a rubber band car race. Each class was competing against each-other. 2 people from each class (the people with the best cars) became the class reps. Our class reps were Max H and Bianca G. I was in a group with David and Kyle and, with our awesome skill, we made a car that looked like a hummer! The record length it got was 4 metres. Max's record was 8m and Bianca's was 14m! A few hours before the actual race our class reps were allowed to upgrade their vehicles. Max decided to 'pimp his ride' by giving it super big wheels. Unfortunately , he screwed his car and it's top distance was reduced to 6m and it started to go really slow. But Max couldn't change it; it was too late! Off we went to the hall and filled in with all the other classes to form a gap between us, like a race track. Then everyone put down their cars 1 by 1 and raced. Eventually it was room 7's turn. Max's car didn't go very far. Bianca's car went all the way to the end of the assembly room and hit the wall. Dave had to move the start back 2 times. Room 7 wins! What an awesome day.
