The arch nemesis of solar cars, CLOUDS, reared their fluffy heads.<br /><br />Still, Genius and team made it to the checkpoint already, with about two hours to spare before it closes, and did not have to trailer their car. That's a good thing. I think they are in 5th place right now.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-85938540661603191432016-08-05T00:48:33.744-05:002016-08-05T00:48:33.744-05:00Exciting stuff--GO, Genius!!Exciting stuff--GO, Genius!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-82979819172901696982016-08-04T23:46:18.848-05:002016-08-04T23:46:18.848-05:00I believe it was mostly 2-lane from Ohio across In...I believe it was mostly 2-lane from Ohio across Indiana into Illinois, then they got on a divided highway where they could pass easier. When I was on the map following them through Kansas, it looked like a lot of it turned into two-lane again, but with wide shoulders.<br /><br />One team put up a picture of their solar car traveling behind a shed on a trailer. I think their caption was, "We're following a shed." I need to check the whereabouts of Hick at that time...<br /><br />Here, they left Grant's Farm and went down Hwy 21, where Iowa pulled off the side to let a line of traffic pass, and caught a wheel in the eroded blacktop, and broke an axle. they had it fixed within 30 minutes.<br /><br />The cars headed across 110, down 67, and across the bottom of the state on 60 to Republic, MO.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-74298468277649958492016-08-04T23:20:08.364-05:002016-08-04T23:20:08.364-05:00What kind of roads are these cars traveling on?

Michigan has been in the lead since the first day on the track to qualify for the road race. They're a powerful team. Genius-and-them just want to make a good showing on their shoestring budget. They were thrilled to come in 4th at a couple of the checkpoints. It's a cumulative time record for the whole trip that determines the winner.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-54910112578357494732016-08-04T20:36:31.321-05:002016-08-04T20:36:31.321-05:00From Brecksville, Ohio to Hot Springs, South Dakot...From Brecksville, Ohio to Hot Springs, South Dakota.
