EcoCar's a winner. 1st Place overall. Not even close.

So in the last 2 years, we've got a meteorology championship, an EcoCar championship and a disk golf championship?? And Clay Travis thinks we should be kicked out of the SEC. What a douche.

Congrats to the EcoCar team. That really is something cool to win.

I used to work in a different part of the CAVS building, but those challenge x/ecocar guys were always down there doing something when I would come in or leave.

except EcoContraption actually won a f'n championship.

Mississippi will now enter the eco race and pretend to have done so in order to compete with LSU, their main rival.

I heard that it was pretty well in hand after the first week of the competition, but instead of letting them lay off, the team leader kept them going... wanted to win by all 1000 points...

I'd say we're the odds on favorites to win Year 3 of the competition too.

This was a pure out asswhipping. It was clear we had won on Day 1 - the only question was by how much. Hope this gets the publicity that it deserves.

sale our plans to T Boone Pickens for a $120,000,000 and upgrade all facilities.

seriously, stuff like this has to frighten the big oil companies a little.
