Looks like I'll have to take some parts off my car to increase it 2,800 mpg. Anyone have a wrench I can borrow?

Cool.

Nice that they don't let people peddle. That was my biggest problem with the solar bike challenge which I took part in during High school. Making peddling part of the equation turned it from a technical challenge to one that was really only about which team had the lightest and fastest rider. My picture is still on their site, heh.

I'm not sure how peddlers have an advantage?

I mean that any competition where they allow people to peddler, then the competition is less about using a good solar panel and fuel efficient design, and more about how strong the peddler is. The competition should be a technical one, not a athletic one. :turtle:
