As the car is coming together, we have begun seeking out sponsors to help us put the finishing touches on the car. Last year we had the privilege of working with many local businesses to build a successful car. This year we are getting closer to our fundraising goal, but still need some help. If you are interested in a sponsorship, please visit the SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES tab in the top navigation menu. Thank you!
We are making great progress! Currently we are tacking up the roll bars and starting the engine mounts.
Things are starting to come together! The frame is mocked up and in the process of being welded together. Challenges have already begun presenting themselves, a big one being cutting the correct angles on the round tubing for the frame.
After a successful year designing, building, and then racing a Formula High School car, we are back with the goal to be even better. Third place is so close to first, why should we expect any less than perfection? This year we are changing up our design, implementing some new technology and materials to keep our weight down and our speed up. Although we don't want to give away too many secrets! Follow along on our journey this year as we set new goals and strive to be the best!
Below, group member Kory Tetschlag notches a key to the perfect fit. First homecoming parade was a success for tech club! It is always fun to showcase the fun projects we have the opportunity to work on! |
