@stjosephsborris visited @Pallaskarting last week for the Go Girls Karting & STEM initiative.
" I didn't think i would enjoy the engineering, but i found it very interesting”
"I didn't think maths would be so important for how to go fast around the track, it made so much sense”

Well done to all for the fantastic effort made. You are all wonderful ambassadors for NUI Galway Engineering and you continue to do us proud! Looking to next year already.
Our race is run. We haven't managed to making a valid score with this car. Time to take a short break, pack up our roadshow, and head for home. Thanks @shell_ecomar, see you in 2020!
