The Race is announced!

Hey everyone!
We just found out that the race for this summer will be at the Texas Motor Speedway instead of Cross Country, due to economic concerns.

Due to this change of events, the team has split two groups, a small team mainly composed of seniors which will be improving Aurora 10- the car which raced last summer- and the rest of the team will work on the new car, Aurora 13. Aurora 10 will be undergoing many design improvements, with the main goal being to drop weight. The design of Aurora 13 is currently underway, with the suspension nearing completion and other parts' designs underway.
