Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race
2010 Race Report: Safari Attack



Here's a Sculpture!
< Previous Page Next Page >

Safari Attack

The Gottwald family of Great Falls, Virginia returned with Safari Attack in which they outrun a fifth-wheel charging rhinoceros in their “Land Rover”. Their rooftop baggage during the land portions of the race was reconfigured into highly stable outrigger pontoons for the water entry.

Safari Attack showed the Gottwald’s consistent effective engineering that won 2009’s Grand Mediocre East Coast Championship with Goin’ Griswold.

By the time they crossed the finish line, the rhino was so exhausted from charging them that they removed it from the back of the sculpture and put it on the roof with the zebra and tiger.
