So. Micro$oft wants to take the trophy!

Too bad we took the jeep apart. It would have been a good starting place.

To compete with Microsoft? Thats a pretty big challenge. We could
probably put something together. I would totally be in on it 100%. Sounds
incredibly fun!

Hello Team!

Jim, one of the founders of the Power Racing series called me late this
weekend and brought up a challenge… Build a self driving power wheels car
to complete with Microsoft! He told me that Microsoft was going to bring a
self driving power wheels car to Maker Faire New York.

What do you think? Do we have the skills to kick Microsoft’s ass?

He was hoping to get a response by today but I told him that wasn’t a
possibility. I’m hoping to schedule some time for a meeting at the shop
within the next day or two. What do you think?
