The cost of producing a competition vehicle as well as keeping students safe are key concerns. Events like the Green Grand Prix are what ecomodders are more inclined to support. The local community college has a Geo Metro modified to get 140 mpg at 45 mph for the event at Watkins Glen. There are national and regional events for streamlined human powered vehicles through ASME.
