The History of Power Drive
Over the last thirteen years power drive has grown from a simple small twelve school competition to a large state-wide and complex competition. Now over forty teams compete to build the fastest light electric vehicle.
The Criteria
What does it take to qualify for state? In order to qualify for state there are just a few simple rules. First the car has to compete in a preliminary race, where it has to pass the safety inspection, and complete at least one lap on the course. If it fails to meet these requirements than the only other option that team has is to apply for a waiver to compete in the exhibition class at state finals (not for points thought).
