The Challenge

The 2010 American Solar Challenge (ASC2010) is a competition to design, build, and drive solar-powered cars in a cross-country time/distance rally event. Teams compete in a 1100 mile drive from Tulsa to Chicago. The route has been chosen to combine pieces of old routes used in previous events, giving a bit of an historical tribute for the 20 years of organized events in North America.

The American Solar Challenge is hosted by the Innovators Educational Foundation, a pending 501c3 organization devoted to applied learning in the areas of science, engineering, and technology.
