Like all the teams, you set off from the secret rendezvous point with four balloons. You spent 80 points buying another 4 from shop 1. A further 1 balloons from shop 2 cost you another 35 points. Along the way you had 9 of your cargo popped, meaning you arrived back at base with nothing but empty pieces of string. Your race time ranked you 32 out of 36 teams which gave you a bonus 23 points and a total of -92 for the race overall.
