Round 2...Second Place :-(

Sigh. We missed first place by about 0.6 seconds. We had a lap time of 43.9x seconds, the other guys were 43.3x (something like that).

Starting at around 1pm I re-tuned the sensor board, and re-wrote the linearization code to compute 1-over-right minus 1-over-left, and just tweaked the values 'till the car did something right. There was still no time to add the derivative term.

We might've been able to run the last lap a little faster, but we just ran out of time to do so.

So, next steps are: 1) catch up in all my other classes (HA!), 2) prepare for Natcar. Sigh.
