With the help of Jackson Kayak seats, TTU won the System Safety Award at the
Moonbuggy competition on April 8th, 2006 at the Marshall Space Center in
Huntsville, Alabama. As stated by NASA officials, the award has been
available for the past three years, but our vehicle was the first to be
worthy of the award. They loved the seat configuration. We beat 22 other
engineering schools for this award.

We finished 8th overall in the race competition, and sucessfully completed
both runs whereas 7 teams had mechanical failure and were not able to
complete a run.

If my advisor caught a good action shot of our buggy, I will send it to you
as soon as I receive it.

Thank You,
