Saturday was the Power Drive 2012 Final competition. Teams of high school kids spent the last year designing and building electric cars and Saturday they finally got a chance to see how their creations performed.

It was a long day. It started at 7 AM with check-in, safety inspections and performance trials for braking and maneuverability. Then, there were three races that each lasted about an hour.

You can find several more photos here.

I've enjoyed photographing this event for the last couple of years and look forward to doing it again in the future.
