Writing a grant to buy a Stocker for our HS

You might want to give some examples of how math and computer skills would be utilized, such as recording and maintaining a database which can then be used to study the relationship between variables which impact the car's performance such as weather conditions, air-fuel ratios, etc., or how the computer will be used to change the tune-up of the car. These are all things that are obvious to a racer, but which would be less clear to someone who is not a racer. I know when I explain to the professors I work with just how highly sophisiticated drag racing is that they are quite impressed with the skills and knowledge that are required to do well in the sport.
