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. By the time you got to shop 2 you decided to carry on with just the balloons you were carrying. Along the way you had 8 of your cargo popped, meaning you arrived back at base with nothing but empty pieces of string. Your race time ranked you 26 out of 36 teams which gave you a bonus 57 points and a total of -23 for the race overall.
