Wesley Chapel, FL
Kirkland Ranch Academy of Innovation in Wesley Chapel, Florida defended their title in the Electrathon of Tampa Bay high school championship on their home campus course, this past weekend. Electrathon of Tampa Bay High School Championship news coverage Electrathons involve pit competitors racing custom-built electric vehicles that look like Go-Karts, but are powered by electric motors powered by batteries. Instead of a sprint, the goal is to finish as many laps as possible in a certain time, typically one hour. Because fast speeds drain batteries quicker, speed is compromised for other things — like reducing resistance, smoother tires, a more aerodynamic build, etc. — to make the vehicle’s power source last longer. “It's about efficiency, though,” Kocher adds, “and maximizing the power that's in the batteries and maximizing the efficiency of the car, which is so important with electric vehicles.” So Kocher and the students do things like measure the two 12-volt batteries before and after races, watch their gear combinations based on what track they are on, and make sure — and this is a key to the club’s success, he says — that the wheels and tires are as smooth as possible. Although the students were unsuccessful in retaining their championship title, finishing third this year, they clearly are winning with a program like this at their school. Source: Tampa Beacon.
