Summary:

A series hybrid electric vehicle was constructed using a compact car chassis for the 1992 Solar and Electric 500 competition. A computer model for simulation of the vehicle and event conditions was used to determine design and race strategy.

Chassis dynamometer, test track, and race results are compared with expected performance
