Greenpower Success

Chipping Sodbury: Greenpower British Champions 2009

After a very successful year, Chipping Sodbury School's Greenpower teams managed to top that by achieving 1st and 3rd place at the National Greenpower F24 final and 3rd place in the F24+ final. The school designed and built Rotary Racer, R-PodS SSC and Y-Pod?! cars competed against the fastest 75 cars from over 150 teams representing schools across the UK.

The Greenpower organisation promotes electric car design, development and racing for schools, colleges, apprentices and youth groups. The aim is to promote engineering and technology as careers, to those aged 9-21. Teams of students, parents and teachers raise funds from sponsors to design, build, develop and race efficient electric racing cars to Formula 24 rules.
