An 800-watt motor and three 12-Volt lead acid batteries powered the 260-lb cart (with driver) to max velocity in a little under eight seconds, at approximately 12 mph. It may not sound like a lot, but when you squeeze into a tiny kart and hit the throttle, wow, does it move!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were admittedly running tight on time toward the end, so we decided to proceed on the path of least resistance and zip-tie the Lambo body to the frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We took a dremel and opened up some of the wheel wells, so the plastic body wasn\u2019t hitting our tires on the turns. Also, we decided to make the power switches more accessible, so we could easily turn the car on and off and preserve battery power during the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The \u201cBananaghini\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After five days of consecutive late-night builds, we were all a bit loopy from lack of sleep, and some of us realized that our Lamborghini car looked a lot like <a href=\"http:\/\/rare.wikia.com\/wiki\/Diddy_Kong_Racing_DS\/gallery?file=Diddy_Kong_Artwork_-_Diddy_Kong_Racing_DS.png\">Diddy Kong\u2019s car from Diddy Car Racing<\/a>. We decided to dress up like Diddy Kong and settled on the name \u201cBananaghini\u201d for our car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since we were all too tired to think logically, we headed to San Mateo early Saturday morning, looking like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"633\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image03.jpg\" alt=\"2 Fictiv employees dressed as gorillas and eating frozen bananas\" class=\"wp-image-2465 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image03.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image03-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption><em>Gorillas eating frozen bananas<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Race Day 1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"633\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image04.jpg\" alt=\"The Bananaghini attempts to overtake a boat on the racecourse\" class=\"wp-image-2464 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image04.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image04-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption><em>The Bananaghini attempts to overtake a boat on the racecourse<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We arrived at the Maker Faire around 8am and began setting up our pit area. Changing batteries and drivers and making quick fixes during the race was essential to winning, so we made sure our layout allowed the driver to easily pull in and out of our tent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a quick rundown of how we performed on Day 1:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Qualifying lap &#8211; 7th place out of 13<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The qualifying lap was a two-lap speed test. Our time came in at 19.3 seconds, which was just around the middle of the pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For comparison, the fastest time was 14.1 seconds, and the slowest time was 1+ minutes. We weren\u2019t too worried, however, since we knew drivers were going to play a large role in this race, with such a small track and thirteen cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>45-Lap Race &#8211; 5th place out of 13<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The 45-lap race was the first real race of the day, and we were positioned according to our performance in the qualifying lap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We chose Lisette, Fictiv\u2019s visual designer, to drive for this race, since she was the smallest and most fearless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lisette drove like a champion! We moved from seventh place to fifth in our first race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>35-Lap Race &#8211; 6th place out of 13<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The last race of day one was a 35-lap race. Because it was short race, we were less worried about battery capacity and needed someone who knew the course well enough to take advantage of the turns and try to overtake cars on the straightaways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Angela, engineer extraordinaire from Mindtribe, came through, and we moved up one spot from our original seventh-place qualifying time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We left Day one of the Maker Faire feeling really great about our performance and walked away with fifth place overall. We were excited for the real test the next day\u2014the 75-minute Enduro race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Race Day 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"633\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image05.jpg\" alt=\"The Bananaghini on Day 2 of the race\" class=\"wp-image-2467 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image05.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image05-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption><em>Day 2 of the race<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The second day of the race presented the biggest challenge for the competitors. While the short races of day one were challenging and required a game plan to try to squeeze seconds off each lap time, day two was more focused on how we had engineered our car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone can get a kart running with a motor and battery, but very few can get a kart running at full throttle, in one piece, for 75 minutes, without overheating or burning out a motor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Result: Endurance race (75 minutes) &#8211; 8th place out of 13<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, we came in 8th place out of 13, not bad for our first year! Here are some of the challenges we encountered + a few insights for next year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenge #1: Tire Wear &amp; Tear<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>About halfway into our second fifteen-minute round, we encountered a flat tire. Of all the spare tools and parts we brought, we didn\u2019t anticipate these races would cause such wear on our tires! All of them looked worn and minutes away from tearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Half the team removed the wheel completely, removed the tube from the tire, and wrapped the hole with lots of electrical tape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was just a quick fix, though, and sadly, the tires went flat again about 5 minutes after getting the car back on the track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenge #2: Engine Overheating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To make matters worse, our engine actually started smoking toward the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team found a leaf blower and a bag of ice and started blowing cold air over the motor to help bring the temperature down. At this point, if you looked around the track, you were able to quickly tell which teams knew what they were doing. Two teams were completely out of the race because their engines burned out, and about four were in our situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3 Major Insights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>We learned how teams used <a href=\"http:\/\/yospeed.com\/wheel-alignment-explained-camber-caster-toe\/\">caster and camber<\/a> in their steering to avoid the need for differential.<\/li><li>We also asked how some of the better teams dealt with heat dissipation to avoid overheating\u2014the key is to try and get airflow through\/around your motor in the design stage.<\/li><li>We all discussed the different types of batteries teams were using, which varied significantly in weight and capacity. Basically, after the last race, it was just a large open source meeting, where people talked about how they built their karts. Yay, open source!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Final Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Moxie Points &#8211; 4th place out of 13<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Overall &#8211; 6th place out of 13<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Power Wheels Racing Series is an amazing build for anyone of any skill level. Some groups were out there completely for fun, built karts that could barely move, and focused solely on moxie points; and there were other karts that had months of engineering, testing, and research put into them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The great thing about the Racing Series is that you don\u2019t have to have the best engineered car to win. In fact, third place overall went to a car that came near last place in every race, because they were able to win the hearts of the crowd and earn moxie points!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"633\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image06.jpg\" alt=\"The Fictiv and Mindtribe team at the end of the race\" class=\"wp-image-2470 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image06.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/power-racing-series-image06-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption><em>4th place winners for moxie!<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Makers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Jerry Ryle &#8211; Vice President, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sam Kang &#8211; Vice President, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tim Ruitenbeek &#8211; Senior Engineer, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kyle Tucker &#8211; Engineer, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Telind Bench &#8211; Engineer, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Angela Chu &#8211; Associate Engineer, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason Gonzalez &#8211; Associate Engineer, Mindtribe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jackie Liao &#8211; Product Designer, Fictiv<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lisette Fall-Conroy &#8211; Visual Designer, Fictiv<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Andrew Hudak &#8211; Prototyping Engineer, Fictiv<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sunny Sahota &#8211; Prototyping Engineer, Fictiv<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bill of Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"636\" height=\"473\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Power-racing-series-bill-of-materials.png\" alt=\"Power Racing Series Bill of Materials\" class=\"wp-image-2471 lazyload\"\/><figcaption><em>The Bill of Materials for Fictiv and Mindtribe&#8217;s Power Racing Series car<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>** Only half the battery total counts toward the final cost of the car<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Total Cost: $488<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fictiv spent several weeks collaborating with Mindtribe to build a $500 electric car, using the base of a Power Wheels Lamborghini to race at the Power Racing Series at the 2016 Bay Area Maker Faire.
