Winning team 2nd Time Lucky from Dandenong High School said that experience was the key to their success.
“Our strategy was to run fast, spiral outwards and then come back in to reach as many pits spots as possible using trains, trams and buses. We managed to reach nine pits to win our spot in the grand final. We had lots of fun and feel more confident travelling on public transport now in Melbourne,” team captain Robin Phoeng said.
A job well done also to the rest of the teams who achieved the following results:
