You still have a few weeks if you wish to enter. If not, it's still an interesting thing to read about: http://moonbuggy.msfc.nasa.gov/index.html

both times i was there they were getting ready for it. it looked really neat. there were a LOT more people than usual around the center though. that made me mad last time cuz there were too many people in line for space shot and we had to leave or else we'd miss our planes..even though we sat in that room at the airport forEVER. haha. are you on a team benji?

I served on the Moonbuggy Committee for two years and you have no idea how much planning goes into it.

If you goto a high school or college, you should consider starting a team. It is alot of fun, you meet tons of new people and the prizes are awesome. Not to forget that you get to spend a few days at the Sprocket!

Well... I'll be watching the race as much as I can today. They are doing trial runs right now. Looks fun! How come we never got to do fun stuff like that when I was in secondary school? Oh, right... because I went to a boring secondary school in nowhere-land.
