Writing a grant to buy a Stocker for our HS

Well, believe it or not, I met with the assistant superintendent yesterday and she gave us the green light (pardon the pun) to purchase a car, enclosed trailer, and support equipment/tools to begin racing when the tracks open. Needless to say we are so excited about the possibilities this has for our young people. With the technology and tuning involved, as well as my background, I have decided to buy a late-model LT1 car. I've been looking at a couple on the market now. Time to decide which one to go with and get started.

Watch for us at the track. We'll be the group with a handful of teenagers walking around with HUGE eyes and GIANT smiles as it will be the first time at the track for all of them.

Big Congrats!!!!!!

Keep us posted on the progress and when you can, get the computer class to create a website for your "team".

So many teaching opportunities here.

Great idea! I plan to have a student (or two) dedicated to just doing that. We'll also take them to the track to video/take pictures for the web page. Would love to eventually have an article in the ND spotlighting these students as many of them have never had any positive attention at all in their lives.

I second those sentiments. Lots of good things should come from this.

Enough to buy a nice, competive turn-key LT1 Stocker with spares, enclosed trailer, and all necessary tools, etc. needed to maintain it. But ... not enough to go REALLY fast in a DP or CJ.

Why not?????

Make a pitch to all the manufacturers and see if any one of them just might be interested in your program.

Not to ask for a freebie but for perhaps a deal and/or some support.

All they could say is.......YES!
