Students At Cal Poly SLO Pushing To Break Solar Car Land Speed Record

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Students at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo's Prototype Vehicles Lab are working on building a solar powered car to break the current solar powered car land speed record (held by the University of New South Wales) and bring the record back to the US. It's a really neat project--I had the opportunity to take a look at some of their wind tunnel/CFD work back in December because my wife's nephew is one of the students on the team.
