Pictured Left: The Supermileage Team posing for their annual picture with all trophies and cars on display.
The team had many successes this year with 6 trophies shown in front of the cars, including a fifth place endurance finish in Iowa which is
phenominal! The team took First in all categories this year between the three vehicles in Wisconsin!
Retired! Sadly, this was the last year for the famous #27 car! Each Watertown High School Supermileage car has a two year lifespan.
The team will be retiring the #27 car (shown right) this year, and all the components will be stripped off the vehicle and reused on
next year's varsity vehicle for a completely new design. The #27 car was the first car Watertown HS ever built for Electrathon, and
was what got the team "on their feet!" It's legacy and memories will live on in our alumni, history and future designs to come!
Congratulations team.

"J&L Tire" flat bed tow truck, which was borrowed to the team for use in the parade! The #27 car was on the trailer, while both the XRV and the #47 car
drove around the J&L truck. Also given out this year were 500 frisbees donated by the "Machine Tool Program @ Madison Area Technical College!"

This was also the first exhibition of the XRV to the Iowa teams, which was a success with it reaching 55mph at top speed, however not doing very well with endurance on the track!
