The "Resources" Space
The Resources page contains general resources and information that is not specific to a single vehicle. This page is broken down into several subpages:
- How To: A subpage for new members to learn about Midnight Sun workflow
- Mechanical Design Principles: An accumulation of helpful tips tricks, and formulas for mechanical engineers.
- Overview - General Automotive Engineering Notes: An accumulation of information related specifically to automotive engineering and solar cars.
- PDF Library: A collection of PDFs with information relevant to solar cars.
- Other Solar Car Teams: Any information / links about other teams
The "Vehicle Design" Page
MSXII has a Vehicle Design page with subpages for specific categories of the vehicle's design. Currently the subpages are:

SubpagesTable of ContentsJournalJournal entries should be in reverse chronological order. YYYY-MM-DD Description of Journal EntryBy @ |
The journal section of each subpage will help track any progress made on that category of the vehicle design. Journal entries can be as detailed or as brief as you feel necessary. Make sure to include appropriate links and state the author of the journal entry.
Children of these Vehicle Design subpages should be about specify projects related to that category. For example the Suspension & Steering subpage may have children such as: Steering Column Engineering, Selection of Rack and Pinion, Geometric Analysis of Suspension, FEA of Suspension, etc. Use the following template for a specific project that falls under a Vehicle Design Subpage:
