Goro Tamai was the captain of the winning Sunrayce 95 team from MIT. It was a watershed event in more than one way. MIT broke the University of Michigan's monopoly on solar car wins (1990 and 1993); MIT also had a highly unusual design for the shell of the car, one that hasn't been duplicated since.
Goro went on to work as an engineer at GM (Saturn), and wrote this wonderful book. There aren't too many solar car books, so we solar geeks snap them up whenever we can find them.
