Details

Unleash innovation with the fastest 1:20-scale hydrogen car in the world.

Our H2GP Sprint Car Kit includes everything students need to create their own hydrogen before using it to power their lightning-fast, 1:20 scale SPRINT car. Once your students familiarize themselves with the technology, encourage them to create and build their own car from scratch and then use the Fuel Cell and motor to power it.

Step 1:
Create

Students assemble every part of the H2GP Sprint car themselves, giving them an opportunity to understand the role each component plays.   

They begin by preparing things like tubing, the hydrogen tank, battery pack and the electrolyzer. Once these are in place students can create their very own hydrogen and use this to generate electricity to power the car's motor.  

Finally, students assemble the chassis, connecting the wheels, tires, fuel cell, motor and hydrogen gas tank to the car. After the components are assembled, they can test their own fully constructed, unique hydrogen-powered car! 

Step 2:
Race

Now it’s time to race! Students will naturally want to race one another, but the innovative SPRINT Curriculum provides a structure that combines racing with further learning. H2GP SPRINT racers use real-time data to continually analyze the optimal gear ratio, weight distribution, lubrication and position of motors in a quest to create the fastest possible car.

The curriculum provides them with digital tools for plotting race times and visualizing track time, informing the additional modifications students make to their cars.

Step 3:
Innovate

Now that students have all the tools to modify their hydrogen-powered car, they’re free to follow their imagination and craft the fastest car possible. This includes redesigning the car chassis with the help of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) or producing their own unique car body.

Using the knowledge and skills they gained from the earlier part of the curriculum, students now become the designers, manufacturers, and producers of their own unique hydrogen vehicles.

Curriculum

Our one-of-a-kind SPRINT Car Kits are complemented by an innovative curriculum delivering an understanding of not only hydrogen fundamentals and fuel cell electrical systems, but also the basic laws of physics, collecting experimental data and discovering core scientific principles.

After students build their very own hydrogen car, the curriculum offers them an extended course to test their prototype, investigate different solutions and measure the impact of these solutions using real-time data. After they refine their design, students are able to continually innovate, updating their car design to get the best possible track times against their peers.

What Educators are Saying About Geyer

Justin has been nothing but helpful and professional in my requests for these Boeing Defense requirements. He has been able to answer my questions and concerns quickly, and helped in securing the order that I may have made with another supplier had be not been the value-add that he is to your company. I hope his merit raise this FY was "exceeds expectations".

..I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!

John C.

The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.

Robert C.

I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.

Mischelle F.

...I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
