This summer’s collegiate level solar car racing is taking place from Jul 22 – Aug 7. Here are some important links to help you stay up to date with the 2021 event. We will do our best to keep the website regularly updated throughout the event but if you are looking for up to the minute stats and information, our social media feeds will be a better bet. If you are primarily interested in following a particular team, we suggest that you check out their website and social media feeds for more information. If you have any questions about the event, feel free to contact us at info@americansolarchallenge.org.
- Pre-Event Team Status Board: This page tracks teams’ administrative documents, vehicle design reports, and Scrutineering status. The goal here is simple: achieve all greens before the start of the event!
- Scrutineering Status Board: This page tracks teams’ progress through the Scrutineering inspection process. The goal here is for teams to get to Dynamics testing as quickly as possible since that becomes the bottleneck. In order to begin the FSGP qualifier teams need to achieve a Blue status or better in all categories. For teams wishing to participate in the cross country ASC tour they will need to achieve a green status in all Scrutineering stations.
- Formula Sun Grand Prix Results: This page tracks teams performance and results during the FSGP qualifier
