We are in Las Vegas, NM! Our day began with a solar car drive to Trinidad. We then trailered over the Raton Pass. Race officials highly encouraged this trailering, and even required it for a sub-section.
Tomorrow we will resume racing! This time to Santa Fe and back☀️

Goodbye Kansas! Hello Colorado! We passed through La Junta today, and are on our way towards Trinidad. We ended with very low SOC, but managed over 200 miles today!

We got out of Dodge! We ran into a few issues along the way, including a strong headwind and cloud cover, but made it past the Dodge City checkpoint. We are now charging during the evening and will be continuing onto La Junta tomorrow!

We made it to McPherson! CalSol capped off a great day of racing by completing a challenge loop with a mere minute to spare. With this extra distance in hand we are in a great position for the coming legs. Excited to set out tomorrow!

CalSol set off on ASC today and sailed through the checkpoint at Council Grove, Kansas. Zephyr has ran well today, with only a small MPPT related roadside diversion to slow us down. Onto McPherson!☀️
