The Formula Sun Grand Prix (FSGP) is an annual solar-car race that takes place on closed-loop race tracks. In the race, teams from colleges and universities throughout North America design, build, test, and race solar-powered vehicles.

Every two years the race serves as a qualifier for the American Solar Challenge road race.^[1]

Format and organization

Rules

The race consists of three days of freely driving laps around the race track.
The team with the most total laps driven wins.
The total area of all solar cells and related reflectors, etc., must not exceed 4 square meters (43 sq ft).^[2]
The solar array may be reoriented toward the sun for charging batteries for specified time periods before and after race hours.
Strict specifications and engineering scrutiny process is provided for vehicle configuration, safety requirements, and other standards.
Previous races have divided teams into "open" and "stock" classes based on levels of solar cell and battery technologies.

History

Formula Sun Grand Prix is governed by the Innovators Educational Foundation,^[3] and was started in summer 2000 at Heartland Park race track in Topeka, Kansas, in conjunction with a solar-bike race.

It has served as a qualifying race for the biennial American Solar Challenge road race.

The race was held there every year through 2005 until the 2007 American Solar Challenge was canceled due to funding issues. It resumed in 2009 and has been held every year since then at a few different venues.

2000

The inaugural race was held at Heartland Park Topeka race track in Topeka, Kansas. It was won by Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology's Solar Phantom V.^[4] The stock class was won by the University of Missouri-Rolla's Solar Miner II.
