A $20 gift buys a pair of safety glasses, an essential part of safety in the shop.
The batteries powering our all-electric car operate at over 270 volts, making specialized safety gloves a necessity.
$125 will purchase a full set of brake pads, an important consumable part of our newly designed braking system.
Accurate and precise steering is critical to our car’s handling and driver safety. Good steering will enable our drivers to maximize the car’s potential in competition.
New and improved brake calipers will increase the braking force the driver is able to apply to the wheels, enabling us to accelerate harder and safely stop the car when competing and more importantly in case of an emergency.
$1,000 will cover the cost of renting a U-Haul to bring our car and all the necessary tools to competition at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
$2,000 buys all the necessary parts and labor to completely overhaul our braking system, making the car safer, more reliable and more competitive on track.
Our largest expense this year will be the materials and fabrication for our new chassis, which will be sent out and professionally fabricated by an outside company. Our new chassis design will make the car stiffer and safer in a crash and help improve handling and drivability.
