The gist of my project will be about how building lightweight and aerodynamic vehicles is the key to efficiency instead of many of the technologies that automakers are using today. My main hope is to help spread the word and hopefully at least open up a few people's minds. As you know, a lot of people think that the fuel efficiency vehicles currently get is as good as it gets. I'm there to tell them otherwise. There are a lot of big organizations there, so maybe I'll inspire them. There are even internship opportunities if they like you.
