Arriving at the qualifiers


Arriving at the qualifiers


Being a solar car driver was tiresome


Entering the turning radius test





The first time we did this test, our turning radius turned out to be too large. After adjusting our steering linkages, our driver completed the test in record time.


The brake test


We had a problem


Both front tires were blown. This was due to tire pressure and our driver still needed to get used to the solar car's brakes.
