Not many photos from this day due to working on the throttle and brakes issue from the day before. This run was terminated by a new problem developing in the controller. About 1/2 hour after this failed run Kevin received a call from Dr. Tether informing us that we were done. We came to find out we were not alone. Ten teams were eliminated by the next day.
