Solar Storms Solar Car Team

July 12, 2026
The Solar Storms are officially on the road to Texas! After a few last-minute preparations, the captain, coach , and the car pulled out at 4pm, just 2 hours later than planned for that day. With a six-hour drive ahead to Idaho Falls, ID for the night, the journey is already giving the team a taste of race logistics, including fuel stops about every two hours to keep them moving. Spirits are high, excitement is building, and this is just the beginning of an unforgettable adventure. The Hood Racer is in the trailer and on its way to Texas!

“I knew I would learn a lot and get experience. I didn’t actually think we’d be able to build a car.  But we did it!” – Cohen

Thank you to everyone who helped us get here!
