WANADA Tech Team Takes on National Competition in NY

WANADA Tech Team Takes on National Competition in NY

After winning the Washington Area Automotive Technology Competition in February, the Fairfax team of (from left) Caroline Gibson, Kyle Houghton, and instructor John Lawrence (not pictured) earned the right to compete against 40 top high school teams from around the country at the 14th annual National Automotive Technology Competition at the New York International Auto Show in April.

Although they didnĂȘt take top honors, our team was one of only a few that diagnosed their test car correctly and got it started. They left the Big Apple with award plaques for technical and academic excellence, racing shirts, tools and a choice of scholarship awards, including a $6,000 scholarship from Northwood University. Most importantly, the team earned the respect and attention of potential employers among WANADA dealer members.

Congratulations!
