Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Well it's on again. The 2019 Solar Challenge from Darwin to Adelaide.
I was lucky enough to be in Katherine, 8 years ago when they went through. Magnificent sight to see them on the road & rolling in to the check point.

I take it there is a limit to how many cells they can have?
A lot of the cars seem to have plenty of vacant real estate they could put more cells on.

There are heaps of rules & regs. Max panel size is one of them. Also depends on the class of car as well.
