Driven to Help: P1 Donates to K-State Powercats
P1 recently donated the material for lab/construction countertops to the Kansas State Society of Automotive Engineers Formula Race team (K-State Formula SAE). The donation played a role in helping the team build their newest race car, “Ocelot” (pictured, above).
Formula SAE is the world’s largest and most prestigious design competition with 13 international competitions and over 500 active teams. Powercat Motorsports has represented K-State in competition every year since 1997.
The team works from the ground up, designing, manufacturing, testing, racing and presenting a fully functional, open wheel, open cockpit racecar.
Students from all across campus participate.
“As a sponsor of our team, P1 Group helped students succeed and propel their careers as engineers,” Brett Cook, president, Powercat Motorsports, said.
Ocelot went to Formula North in Barrie Ontario to compete with some of the highest ranked teams in North America.
P1 Group is committed to strengthening the communities in which we live and work. We are proud to support students in construction and other related fields of study.
