MIT Solar Electric Vehicle Team (Arcturus)

The team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have previously raced in the WSC in 1987 (coming 8th), 1999 (8th), 2001 (6th), 2003 (3rd), 2005 (6th), 2009 (5th), and 2011 (15th). This year they are back, with their new car Arcturus (above), and we wish them well. The video below explains the design, and some technical details are given here. Good luck, team 7!
