TRIPLE WOW!!!!!!!!
On Sunday the 22nd of March it was the Soap Box Derby challenge.(WHOEVER WIN'S GOES TO THE AUCKLAND CHAMPS!)
I got so excited as if I was a Millionaire!
I arrived at Morrin road in Mt Wellington at 8:30am. The first race of the day was at
9:30 CHURR HOO. At 8 o clock Mr Burt our principal came to Morrin
Road with Point England School's CAR.
It was NICE and SHINY, mostly RED, and at the back it was
BLACK. We were mostly supported by KORKOR, a company that makes two way digital radios.
BAM!!!!! 9:30 went past with a scream in my ear.
Up first was CHURCHILL PARK SCHOOL VS PARNELL DISTRICT SCHOOL. Off they went down the steep hill, then up a 300 metre hill. 5 seconds away from the finish line
with CHURCHILL PARK UP IN FRONT. OH NO!
CHURCHILL PARK BREAKED BEFORE THE FINISH LINE! which lead's PARNELL up in front, past the finish line, and brake as CHURCHILL PARK moved slowly across the finish line.
WHAT A BAD START TO THE DAY FOR CHURCHILL PARK.
Next race was POINT ENGLAND VS SACRED HEART AND I WAS ON THE
LEFT LANE. The pit crew brought out the car on the ramp and down I went straight down like a soaring sword and past the finish line.
IN FIRST PLACE IS POINT ENGLAND WITH THEFASTEST TIME OF THE DAY!
When all the rounds were finished, we had won all our races.
After that was round 2 our quarter final's.
For the next race
it was POINT ENGLAND VS BAILEY ROAD.
"GO!! "
Said the man and off we went
down the hill "and Jacob is taking the lead for point England school"
(that's me). Down I went and "POINT ENGLAND IS WINNING BY 7
SECONDS.... 6, 5, 4....... AND THE WINNER IS JACOB!"
I WON BY 4 SECONDS WITH THE BEST RECORD TIME of 33.221. SO OFF I GO NOW TO GET READY FOR THE GRAND FINAL'S
WISH ME LUCK POINT ENGLAND
As I got up, the car was already loaded up and so I got in. Down I went vs Sacred Heart for the Grand Final's.
SO WE WON! NORTH SHORE HERE WE COME WITH 4 TROPHY'S!
