Tim, a mechanical engineering major at South Dakota Tech, is the son of Dave and Paulette Gross of Yale. He is one of two students who will be driving Tech's car. SDSM& T's car, named Dakota Sun, is one of 36 solar- powered vehicles which qualified to enter the biennial intercollegiate competition. SDSM& T is the only university in an 11- state region ( Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyoming) to enter a vehicle in Sunrayce ' 97. South Dakota Tech will be competing against many larger universities, some of whose enrollments are 10 or 15 times higher -- such as UCLA, University of Minnesota, Purdue, and Virginia Tech. Sunrayce ' 97 starts Thursday, June 19, in Indianapolis and will finish ten days later in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The race is sponsored by General Motors, Electronics Data Systems, and the Department of Energy. Dakota Sun will begin the long- distance race of solar- powered vehicles across America's heartland in the 32nd position. SDSM& T's Solar Motion team has its own web site and will be updating the web site throughout Sunrayce ' 97 with race developments and photos as they occur. The web site address is : www. enetis. net/~ chy/.
