We Are, The eV Challengers

2009 - A group of dedicated physics students set themselves the task of building a small battery powered vehicle to compete in the eV Challenge. After constructing our vehicle which included a steering system where the chassis leaned into corners (something never done before in the eV Challenge) our team came 3rd in our battery class and 5th overall.

2010 - We revamped the car, making it far more efficient with several ingenious design and engineering solutions. We came 1ST OVERALL and set a new event RECORD in a strong field of around 50 other competitors including other schools, tafes and private entrants.

Now - With high school finished most of our team have gone in other directions leaving only the two most committed team members, Oscar Fehlberg and Guy McCauley. We Are, The eV Challengers!


Over the next few months we will be sharing our experiences in designing and building our vehicle and filling you in on the details of the eV Challenge.
Oscar
