On June 23rd Hayle Schools electric race car team ‘Haylestorm’ took part in the South West regional heats at RAF St. Mawgan. Track temperatures of well over 30°C meant conditions were hot for the drivers and pit crew alike. The team, a mix of Year 7’s and 9’s produced a mighty effort working together as a cohesive unit and were disciplined and focused throughout. We were one of the few teams that didn’t incur a single penalty the whole race! A creditable finish of 8th (out of 16 teams) was achieved and the team look forward to re-developing the car for next year’s event.
A huge thank you to our sponsors who helped us: Cycle Logic in Helston, Cornwall Farmers, and Hendy Funeral Directors. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Well done Haylestorm
