From Dr. Giorgio Rizzoni, Director of CAR & proud BB2 team Advisor: 

Friends of the Buckeye Bullet:

If you have followed the blog, you should know that the team is waiting for repairs to be completed on the motor.  The team expects the motor to be ready for installation on Wednesday morning.

Meanwhile, Saminco, the inverter supplier, flew a technician to the Salt to help repair related damage to the inverter.  The technician had the 500-kW inverter back in one piece within a few hours, after replacing a damaged IGBT.

The team should be ready to attempt a land speed record sometime on Wednesday.  The FIA meet will last through Friday.

You will find frequent updates (and interesting pictures) on the team blog:
