What is Power Drive?

The Power Drive Program is an educational effort that challenges high school students to design and build one-person electric vehicles during the school year.  In the spring, these teams of students compete with one another at organized rallies in areas such as vehicle braking, maneuveralbility and endurance.

At  Adams Central we are in our second year of building electric vehicles.  We are planning on modifying and racing last year's car as well as building a new car. Designing, building, testing, and racing an electric vehicle is not an easy task.  This process takes a lot of time, hard work, money, and materials.
