Too bad you (and others) got screwed by the Gub'mint. Seems like Darpa really did a bonehead job at the event. Pretty classy that you folks didn't have a revolt at the event when cutting field to 11 from expected 20. I'd blown a gasket. http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2553 Wed, 07 Nov 2007 20:23:43 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2553 Awesome Job. Lone wolf got a front page article in technician. Guys in my English class were complaining you did not get to compete. http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2546 Wed, 07 Nov 2007 13:11:50 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2546 It was a pleasure to spend three delightful days in Victorville with the Team as they prepare for and performed the initial tests in preparation for the Finals. When I wasn't buying food, shuttling to and from the airport, and getting lost on the way to dinner Friday night, I saw a solid team who kept busy analyzing and working on the vehicle & that all important "software" set for the race. No one seemed to shy from responsibility and often I saw individuals move out of the limelight to let another team member step in who might have a better or quicker answer. Problem solving is often the most important aspect of an event like this and I believe the Insight Racing Team did a great job in this area. Those who were unable to attend missed an exciting event where millions of dollars $$$$ were thrown at most of the Team efforts, not so by the Lone Wolf Team. Congrats guys, ... now who wants a job paying real money? http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2502 Tue, 06 Nov 2007 01:08:09 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2502 I read about you in Machine Design and started following your progress. Congratulations on your achievements. Even though you did not make the 11, I think you need to be proud of what you did. http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2437 Sat, 03 Nov 2007 12:17:30 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2437 We are so proud of your accomplishments, "The Lone Wolf rocks"! We've been following your progress and were quite shocked at the turn of events. (Kind of like "Survivor" they voted out the strongest) When it's all said and done, the advancements that the Team has made are monumental. Enjoy the rest of your stay and have a safe trip home. {Get some rest} http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2418 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 19:29:22 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2418 Congratulations to all team members for making it to the semi-finals. Take this as a great learning experience, nothing was really lost here; knowledge and teamwork spirit was gained. http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2417 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 19:23:31 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2417 Congratulations on making it to the semifinals. You have a great team and a awsome group of students from NCS. You guys are wonderful and that I got to meet all of you. Keep me posted on things. You guys accomplished a lot from 2 years ago. I am very proud of all of you. Hope to see you again in another 2 years. Keep up the great work. http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2416 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 19:01:20 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2416 My congratulations on competing so well in this tournament. Though I'm now at Stanford (BS.EE '07, NCSU)for graduate school, I was rooting for Insight all the way. I'm a little puzzled why DARPA decided to reduce the finalists from 20 to 11. What reason did they give for not letting team Insight advance? I think you guys deserve to compete in the finals. http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2404 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 12:34:43 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2404 I think your accomplishments are awesome and you guys should be proud of your work, but I feel like I must ask this question...what next? http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2396 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 03:22:40 +0000 http://raceinformation.insightracing.org/?p=22#comment-2396 Congrats on making it as far as you did. It could not have been easy and must have been an awesome experience. Jerry, call me when you get back to NC.
