Re: Should there be a new division in FIRST?
We've had several FRC alumni participate at Univ. Of MN in the American Solar Challenge ( http://americansolarchallenge.org/ and https://www.facebook.com/umnsvp?fref=nf)
You get to build a street legal experimental solar powered car and then figure out how to drive it a very long distance (1200-1800 miles) while trading off speed, power consumption and watching weather and maximizing sun exposure.
I think they've also competed in non-US competitions as well.
