Students build a 2,843 MPG car

A high school team from Evansville, Indiana built a 2,843.4 mile per gallon car with a three-wheeled, combustion-engine design. The car won top prize at the 2008 Shell Eco-Marathon held in Fontana, California. Pretty nice ride, although being that close to the ground might not work so well for potholes.
