Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race
2023 Race Report: CLAWdia

With 2 pilots, CLAWdia is an anatomically proportionate blue crab made primarily of repurposed soda bottles and spite.

CLAWdia included iconic representations of Old Bay seasoning (with red tops and a blue stripe on rectangular yellow canisters) and National Bohemian beer (with the one-eyed handlebar moustache logo).

CLAWdia stayed tethered to the pier for safety but had plenty of flotation.

Narrow tires needed a lot of cheerful pushing through the sand.

And the team pushing through the mud also had no lack of enthusiasm.

This is the team’s second entry; last year they entered:

• 2022: Ve-Fossil Wrapper (Sock Creature of the Universe)

The CLAWdia team, with Baltimore-themed crab hats.
