For a week before and during the 2016 American Solar Challenge at the Pittsburgh International Race Complex in Wampum, Pennsylvania, Appalachian’s solar vehicle underwent scrutineering – detailed inspections and performance trials. Apperion passed all scrutineering tests in time to begin the first day of track racing. Not all vehicles did. Some crashed during slalom testing and spent valuable time repairing; some had difficulty in the wet road brake testing; others had driver egress and communications tech challenges.

Team Sunergy leader Dan Blakeley rounds out the American Solar Challenge track race in third place, completing Apperion’s three-day run with 414 laps to Minnesota’s 386. Exiting the vehicle, he’s doused with a shower of cold water from his team.
