First Practice of the Year!
Sunday, 09 March 2008
We just completed to first practice of 08' with great results. Although it started out a little rough, (fuel injection problems, dead batteries, flat tires) we drove the car 54 for a good four hours. Eric Davey posted the fastest time of the day at 32.63.  Troy Tempel followed with a 32.87, Trevor Pankratz scored consistent 34.3's and Reid Prison posted a 35.94. We ended the day with a broken tie rod end, but should have it repaired shortly. We are going to try to put on another practice later this week so if you are in town and available, show up!

Weekend Practice?
Friday, 22 February 2008

The parking lot across from the tennis court is looking pretty dry, and I wouldn't mind driving car 54 this weekend.  I think we are going to try for Sunday around noon, weather permitting.  Call or text me if you can help out with putting on a practice.

Kawasaki Bikes Delivered to shop!
Written by Administrator   
Friday, 28 December 2007

On Saturday Decemeber 22, 2007 three Kawasaki ZX-6R motorcycles and three ZX-6R 600cc engines were delivered to the shop courtesy of Kawasaki! Faculty advisor Robb Larson met the driver in the Stadium lot at 7:30 AM, off-loaded the bikes onto his snowmobile trailer, then drove the lot to their new home in the shop. The 5°F temps and icy roads ruled out a test drive - for now! Thanks to the sponsorship of Kawasaki Bobcat Motorsports now has an established drivetrain for future years.

Spring semester kicks off in a few weeks, capstone design students will return and start construction on the new 2008 racecar! Check out the photo gallery for additional images of the bikes.
