Two teams from Mahurangi College took out national awards at the Evolocity finals day held in Hamilton on Sunday, November 24.
The students had to design and build their own electric vehicles and test their performance on the track. A total of 58 young engineers from 42 different schools competed.
Thor’s Hammer, built by Takimoana Philips, Lars Noordhoek and Fletcher Ostling, won best economy run, doing 30km over 54 laps in one hour.
Scent of Musk, built by Robbie McFarlane, Cayle Farmiloe and Nathan Heron, won fastest vehicle in the street circuit race.
Technology teacher Paul Lenihan thanked the parents and teachers who helped the students and the community sponsors for making it possible. Pictured, Lars Noordhoek on Thors Hammer.
