The American Solar Challenge (ASC) is a multi-day, 1,500-2,000 mile cross-country endurance rally across North America. The event is typically held every other year during the summer and is open to collegiate level solar car teams from countries all over the world. The routes have varied greatly over the course of the event’s rich history, but they are always designed to provide teams with a great opportunity to demonstrate their solar cars under real world driving conditions and thoroughly test the reliability of all onboard systems.

The Formula Sun Grand Prix (FSGP) is an annual track competition that is held on grand prix or road style closed courses. This unique style of solar car racing truly tests the limits of the vehicles in handling curves, braking, and acceleration.
On years when the American Solar Challenge (ASC) is held, FSGP serves as the qualifier event for this competition.
FSGP is not associated with FORMULA 1 racing.
The Innovators Educational Foundation (IEF) Solar Car Conference brings together both new and experienced solar car teams during the nominal design phase of their solar car projects. The conference provides as opportunity for teams and inspectors to connect, learn through a variety of sessions covering all aspects of the solar car project, and discuss plans for upcoming FSGP/ASC events.
