Mike;

The "Stock" class electric race car definition makes NASCAR look
conservative.

While not as fast as LSR the approach used in building these "cars" asa 
well as the diversity of their construction is similar.
It was a real treat to have the finish line of the race on our campus 
yesterday.  Unfortunately it was a media event and very crowded, but I 
still found some time to visit with a few crew members during my lunch 
break.

Aero plus our usual constraints of driver safety, engine etc, plus the 
added need to soak up the sun.
