Pit Stop Challenge
Feel the rush of the pit lane. Teams step into the role of a NASCAR pit crew, taking on fast, hands-on challenges — jacking up a car, changing all four tires, and racing the clock to out-coordinate the competition.

The whole event was managed very well, the team learned a little more about each other as well as about themselves. Easy to follow activities creating a sense of understanding that while the activities were a game for us, to others it is their reality day in and day out.
