Name the Red River Race Car!

September 11, 2017

A team of Red River College students are designing, building and racing their own battery-powered car in the Shell Eco-Marathon taking place in California in April, 2018. And they need your help!

You can learn more about the team here.

Here’s how the contest works:

Enter: Complete this form outlining your proposed car name, along with a brief description of why you think it’s fitting. Entries will be accepted until Monday, September 18, at 5:00 p.m.

All submissions will be reviewed by a panel of Red River College judges.

The shortlist will be revealed on social media and though all staff news, and the college community will then be invited to vote on the top names!

Vote: The college community will be able to vote for their favourite race car name later this September.

Win: the person who comes up with the winning car name will be profiled on the race team’s social media, and enjoy a tour of the vehicle by the race-team!
