One week down, many more to go

This week was truly exciting as we learned about the workings of a solar car.  What was most interesting was how the solar car's engine uses VC so that it can receive more power.  We also learned that the bar is where energy is drawn from, not the batteries directly.  We also learned that regenerative braking puts energy back into the bar by reversing the flow of electricity.

This week also saw some progress on SK2.  We were able to put on the two front wheels and hopefully we can put on the back wheel early next week.
Jacking up the SK2 so we can put the wheels on.
