Michigan is currently third in the American Solar Challenge. They were first but they had to stop to charge their battery. While charging, Minnesota and Missouri-Rolla overtook Michigan to take the current first and second placing. According to Michigan’s blog, they are still first in term of time. However, by looking at the current position as shown by a GPS tracker, it seems Minnesota is really leading. Ouch.

Anway, from the official sites and other various solar car teams’ blogs, the weather was not favorable.

Well, whatever it is, go Blue!
