The UK team had about a 20 point lead going into the flight phase.
They had the misfortune of having their egg capsule land on the hard tarmac and their egg broke.
I guess they will be spending more time working on that portion of their system for next year.
Congratulations to all the teams that made it to the International TARC Competition.
