Calgary's Solar car hits the streets

The University of Calgary's solar car team is hitting the streets on a five-day mini tour of Alberta. The students who designed and built the solar car say its faster, lighter, and more energy efficient than previous models. In this video by Gavin Young and Rick Donkers, the Schulich Axiom team hits the highway to encourage schoolkids, while at the same time work any last minute bugs out.

bad areo-dynamics

you need a lower front end , lower the body down

create the thing out of carbon fiber , send the power out evenly though out the front two tires.

carbon wheels . use plexiglass for the windows and even you can mount on that rc plastic body stuff its super light and can hold up to speeds that the sloar car cant reach.

also any wait should be put right on top or near the front tires to give the front wheels more traction
