Car FAQ
How fast does the car go?
Outlaw III has a top speed of 40mph. However, during a race, we average around 20mph because it is most efficient on our batteries. As the race is about endurance and not speed, we care more about the efficiceny of our driving rather than speed.
What does the car weigh?
Stripped down to just the frame, metal only, the car weights about 110 pounds, fully loaded with drivers and batteries Outlaw III sits right around 700lbs.
Where does the gas Go?
You would be surprised as to how many people ask this question. Our car does not run off of gas, we actually use electrical energy converted from the sun using solar panels to power our car.
