After the jump, the view from Plano yesterday, where, as we mentioned a couple of weeks back, 15 collegiate teams revved their solar-powered engines for the 2,400-mile trek from North Texas to Calgary, Alberta as part of the North American Solar Challenge.

For those so inclined, the NASC is keeping a blog right here. –Robert Wilonsky
