how well does it work indoors if its bright inside? or can it run on plain ceiling lights at all?
Nope, won't work inside at all. Full sun and just slightly overcast conditions are the only way it will go. There just isn't enough light produced indoors to pull it off. Now, you could set up a little course indoors that is lit with a couple of those 500 watt halogen work lamps and the car would probably work. I use them all the time when testing solar ideas indoors or when it's dark out and I'm on a late night building marathon.
