The Pana Youth Solar Team was honored at the Christian County Board Meeting on Tuesday evening. The team placed 1st at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas in July after finishing in 5th last year at the Solar Races. Second year Solar Car member Katelyn Townsend says that it was surreal being able to race and win at the same place as some Nascar Superstars.
Lucas Duduit says that it was a lot more intense this year, but he enjoyed going down the road course last year as opposed to making left turns this year.
Duduit has one word of advice for those kids who want to follow in his footsteps and be engineers.
Duduit has informed Regional Radio News that the Pana Solar Car Team will not be competing next year, as this was the last year for the program.
