FuelClinic was selected as one of nine finalists from a field of over 90 start-ups participating in the ITS of America Congestion Challenge - a grant process being held at the venture-capital website VenCorps.com and sponsored by Intelligent Transportation Society (ITS) of America and its partners.

FuelClinic was competing against 8 other very strong (and in most cases "already well-funded") start-ups, all attempting to convince the community at VenCorps that they have the best new idea for moving people more efficiently, preventing accidents, curbing congestion, and reducing environmental impact while strengthening economic productivity.

During the Showdown the community picked the winner through a predictive market. The solution with the most community support wins a $50,000 cash prize and 50,000 points.

Even better, the winning solution will be announced on stage at the 16th annual ITS World Congress in Stockholm, Sweden - giving the winning solution unparalleled exposure to transportation officials and professionals from around the world.

Thank you!

Eco-Driving Tips
Travel lighter

Avoid piling a lot of luggage on the roof rack. The added frontal area reduces aerodynamics and will hurt fuel economy, reducing it by as much as 5 percent. Remove excess weight from the vehicle. Unnecessary weight, such as unneeded items in the trunk, makes the engine work harder and consumes more fuel.
