How far does your car go on a gallon of gas? If you're like a lot of us, your ride probably gets in the range of 15 to 40 miles per gallon.

The 2008 edition of the Eco-marathon Americas takes place through this weekend at the California Speedway in Fontana, Calif.

On day one, Thursday, both passed inspection.
