Our Path to Success 

LaGrange, Georgia / Feruary 29th, 2020

Past

• Our team began in 2015 with the donation of our first car, Interceptor, by the Sanmina Corporation.
• We got a fresh start through our early fundraising efforts, including traditional sponsorships, and a car show combined with a race hosted at our school.

But first, a word from our sponsors...

Present

Learning from the best...

• Recently, we began working with a mentor with tons of experience with electrical systems.  
• He provides valuable insight on multiple aspects of our car, including its aerodynamics, electrical systems, and overall condition.

A  Trip to Indianapolis

• Through a sponsorship with Rolls-Royce, our team competed in the 2017 Greenpower Grand Prix at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
• We came in 2nd place overall, which proved our potential to our sponsors, our opponents, and ourselves.

Future

...for the benefit of all 

5

• This season, we have reworked the team to be much less specialized.
• Members can now work on improvements for both cars, and knowledge in all fields relating to the car is promoted.
• Essentially, we want to make our team members "well-rounded," and capable of assisting with any issue that arises.

Focusing on sponsorship efforts..

• We plan on raising more funds through multiple different sources.
  • We are currently in the process of setting up a Krispy Kreme Fundraiser.
  • Our annual car show will be held on April 25th.
  • On designated weekends, we ask local stores if they are interested in sponsoring our team.

... in order to improve our transportation. 

• In the future, we hope to to raise enough funds to consistently pay race travel fees for all of our members.
• We also hope to improve our travel arrangements by purchasing or obtaining a trailer for the team.
  • This way, we won't depend on certain members to transport our cars to races.
