Keena:

• Thinks all three teams have poor discipline

• Car should 1. design, 2. manufacture, 3. test

• Not spending enough time testing for the competition

• Changing most of SRR after the process and not upholding the ideas

• PLAN THIS OUT, please

• Splitting our time between the past and future is hard
