Meet the Knights UC team from USA
Discover why Knights UC from Alden-Conger High School had to rebuild from scratch and demonstrated that sometimes starting small can lead to bigger things!
Knights UC are a high school team from Minnesota, USA and acing challenges is something this team is all too familiar with; from finding adequate shop space to work on their vehicle to rebuilding team numbers after two years of no on-track events. This current team may still be young and small in numbers and yet their hard work, eagerness to learn about the programme and a desire to compete in iconic locations such as the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has led to a successful year for Knights UC.
The student from Knights UC have also gone beyond the competition and work together to enlist sponsorships for their school programme to eliminate out-of-pocket costs for the team members, providing transportation for students to visit businesses for these sponsorship opportunities.
