Here's the official results!

Team Li-Ion finished first by a narrow 0.179 seconds! RaceAbout placed second and TW4XP third by 11 minutes, 36.9 seconds.



ZAP completed 48 laps and Aptera completed 18 laps. Both experienced mechanical issues that forced them off the track before completing the test.



There were a few penalties assessed for speed violations:

· Team Li-ion received 1 penalty for driving under 45 mph

· RaceAbout received 2 penalties for exceeding 70 mph

· TW4XP had 4 penalties for being under 45 mph



Mileage numbers are proving impressive given the stress of this real world challenge on the contenders. For those who completed the race, Team Li-Ion achieved a respectable 125 MPGe and RaceAbout achieved 100 MPGe. Though placing third, TW4XP achieved a remarkable 138.9 MPGe.
