Getting Started


The team is currently still working on the chassis for the new car. This past Tuesday the team held concession stands for the girls and boys basketball games against the Winnebago Indians. The concessions were very successful. Some members have been practicing TIG welding on Chrome Molly. Chrome Molly is a material that is strong yet flexible so we are able to bend it into the angles we need them at. We also acquired a new sponsor this week. Special thanks to our new sponsor Brian Tietz.

Back to Work


Christmas break is over and Power Drive is in full swing once again! Also the team welcomed new members this week. The new members are K. Anderson, T. Ostrand, B. Petersen, J. Schuetze, and D. Wortman. Most of these new members will help mainly on the documentation part of class. Documentation is a huge part in the bid to win another state championship. Documentation has been a key component to our success at the state Championship. The team is currently working on the chassis for the new car. Also they are designing a different steering system to fit in the new car.
