Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race
2008 Race Report: HB1GF



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

HB1GF

HB1GF featured giant brains in a tribute to Hobart Brown, 1 Glorious Founder of the first Kinetic Sculpture Race. It is the creation of the Gugliuzza family of Hyattsville, creators of 2007’s Air Farce One.

They won the Engineering award because the judges continually expected that their craft would produce some sort of dramatic failure, yet it chugged through every obstacle.

At the water entry, they unfurled a large scroll and read its tribute to Hobart.
