Solar Car Visit

The University of Michigan's national champion solar car, the Quantum, embarks Saturday on a 1,000-mile, four-day "mock race" that will ring Pure Michigan's Lower Peninsula. The Quantum, which is street legal, will cruise along US-23 through Rogers City. Stops in St. Joseph, Ludington, Traverse City, Mackinaw City and Tawas City will simulate the upcoming Australian race route.
