ASC Wrap Up

Posted in: 2010 American Solar Challenge, Infinium, Updates|Tags: Race Crew|By: Steve Hechtman|June 28, 20106 Comments

The 2010 race crew has brought back Michigan’s 3rd straight National Championship and 6th overall.  Infinium crossed the finish line 2 hours 12 minutes and 9 seconds ahead of the second place team Minnesota, the official stands can be found here.

Over the course of 6 days, Infinium traveled 1,100 miles averaging 40 mph, which is amazing considering the number of stop lights on this route!  The race crew only had 15 minutes on the side of the the road making a minor electrical repair. To bring back a championship the team had to run a flawless race.  Any downtime or penalties could have cost the team the race, but the team worked hard during the months prior to the race to ensure this didn’t happen.

With the race now over, the team turns its sights to the 2011 project.  More pictures from the race should be uploaded in the near future.

    Way to go it’s a Trifecta. 40 MPH is an awesome average.
    So proud of you all.
