LINKS for EV CARS
Many of the resources here are for solar powered cars. The program is called Junior Solar Sprints. Since we are building remotely, students have their own kits, but instead of the solar panels, we will be using 2 AA Batteries and a Battery pack to power the motor.
Our kits were provide by Go Hunterdon.
