Solar Car Challenge Event Update: April 10, 2014

Good Evening Solar Racers,

Official Race Poster
Attached is the official poster for the 2014 Solar Car Challenge hosted by Austin Energy. Please feel free to reproduce this poster to help your team's fundraising promotions, and for local publicity.

Rules Update
Please note that we have made two clarifications:

(1) Battery Monitors - "Battery meters and monitors where the manufacturer recommends a direct connection with the propulsion system is exempted from being isolated."

(2) Insulation Rules Simplified - We have removed the restrictions about liquid insulation and electrical tape. For simplicity, all high voltage connections will require enclosures, heat shrink, battery caps, or electrical tape, and that low voltage connections need heat shrink or a back shell. [See Rule 5.7.2 for the specifics]

Best regards,
Dr. Lehman Marks
