Genesis '97

http://www.messiah.edu/genesis/history/index.shtml

Description
Messiah completed Sunrayce 97, finishing 12th in a field of 36 challengers (including well-known competitors such as M.I.T., the University of Michigan, Virginia Tech and Texas A&M). Messiah was the top finisher of all Pennsylvania entries (including Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania).

Genesis earned the Renaissance Innovation Award—the race's top award honoring the team with the most innovative technical achievement. Messiah's Genesis '97 vehicle was recognized for its motor optimization system, which maximized the motor's efficiency at various speeds by controlling the air gaps between components. We were also recognized with the award for the most improved vehicle in a single race.
