Actually that is a pretty good topic. I have already done a research paper on how technology and sustainability are mutually exclusive. I enjoy arguing against the commonly accepted perspectives.

Also, I like the idea on the Vetter challenge, though not the electric vehicle aspect. I'd like to look into diesel hydraulic hybrids.
I couldn't find anything on the site about where/when the challenges are held though. Anyone know?
