Russet American Racing

The Russet American Racing team is getting ready for the 2026 solar car race.
We have a great team including Kate (Sophomore), Emily (Freshman), Colin (Sophomore), Piero (Freshman), and Diesel (Junior)! Our advisors are the great Mr. Anderson and the one and only Mr. Serve.
We started the season with a meeting in January to check out the car and now we are evaluating design considerations like the steering system and the whole drive portion! Next meeting we hope to drive the car and see what we need to improve.
We cannot wait for a great season ahead of us!

Buc-ees grand adventure! Bring us home boy!

Beautiful sunrise, unfortunately this may be the last look at the sun today... Overcast is complete...
Big day of racing to see who has any battery left!

Taking an early lunch to maximize our solar harvesting...
We are learning about the limit of our battery!

Soaking up the last few rays after killing it on the track all day! Final lap tally was 91. Leading by 23!

Scrutineering complete! Ready for our first race!
