#RISCV
Congratulations to #IITMadras #RaftarRacing ( https://www.raftarformularacing.com ), placing 3rd overall (and high in individual categories as well) in their first entry into the "Formula Bharath" electric racing car competition ( https://www.formulabharat.com/ ) a few weeks ago in Coimbatore, India. Way to go! Next stop: Germany in August!

Raftar's ECU (Engine Control Unit) is an FPGA-based Open-Source #Shakti RISC-V CPU from IITM ( https://shakti.org.in ). Coded in #Bluespec #BSV, of course!
