Work, Work, and More Work!

Last week we were shorted one day in working on the car, because of the snow day; however, we were able to get a lot accomplished. Manufacturing to the framing system of the car is still in progress as well as checking the steering angles. The team also started on bending the role cage frame to the car.

This week's feaured sponsor is Peterson Metal Products

This week’s feature sponsor is Peterson Metal Products owned by Clark Peterson. His business is located in Bancroft, right off of Highway 16. Clark enjoys coming to the Power Drive meets. All three of his sons have been on the Bancroft-Rosalie Power Drive team. In fact, Brady Peterson, his youngest son, is on this year’s Power Drive team. Clark has been a sponsor of the Power Drive Team for eleven years and really enjoys being part of the program.
After high school Clark attended Northeast Community College before returning to Bancroft to run Peterson Metal Products, which has been in business for twenty-five years. A few products produced by Peterson Metal Products include trailers, and farming equipment. Clark’s business also performs any welding task that you may need.

Hard at Work

The team is hard at work and well on there way. They finished the steering to the S20 car and continue working on chassis for S21 car. Plans for a seat in the new car are being made. In addition to the new seat brackets are being built for the seat belts.

Thank You For Your Help

The Power Drive team hosted concession stands Monday and Tuesday, for the boys and girls conference basketball game. The team would like to thank all who were involved in making the concessions such a success.
The nose of the car is still in progress. In addition to this week the front tire of old S20 car is being reconstructed, making it more parallel.
