VILLA GROVE – Although they don't yet know the outcome of their race for fuel efficiency, Marcus Harris' Villa Grove High School students think their car's a winner.
"The vehicle is awesome," said junior Andrew Currie. "It's our first time doing this so it's hard to tell how competitive we'll be, so we're anxious to see what happens. It would be nice to win."
