The
Ashiya University team is attracted to the adventure and spirit of the
Australian WSC. The first aim of the team was to complete the
journey and cross the finish line in Adelaide. The second goal is to
obtain a place within the top five solar cars at the conclusion of the
event. The 17 member team is comprised primarily of students, with a mix
of teachers past and present.
1. OUR
ACTIVITY
Now
we are living a very rich life with using so much fuel, for example cars
……….
In
other hand, we have several social problems from the second half of the
20th century which are energy resources, earth environment.
Therefore
we established solar car team and started developing solar car from 1992. The
solar car requires sun power only and doesn't make both exhaust sound and
gas. We have developed 3 solar cars during 15 years of our activity.
Sky-A
of 1st car, Sky-Ace 2 of 2nd car, and we developed Ashiya Sky Ace TIGA of
3rd car on 2000 year.
We are joining many solar car race and event in Japan and all over the
world.
2. CAR SPECIFICATION
The
packaging of Ashiya Sky Ace TIGA was renewed, and it applied about 3.5
years and manufactured.
