How do we use solar cells?
The Solar Car Challenge invites us to build and safely race roadworthy solar cars.
We use solar panels to drive the car and produce enough electricity to last as long as possible on the race track.
Our car can produce up to 1700 watts and in order to produce that electricity, we need your support.
