The North Canton - Hoover High School has been a great partner over the years. Their Vocational / Auto Body department, led by Bill Nelson, has partnered in the painting of the team's HRPworld.com Acura Integras.
This year, Mr. Nelson and his students assisted in sprucing up the team's equipment. The pit cart received a complete disassembly and painting. The school painted the entire cart in the same metallic grey as the team trailer. This included the tool boxes, the drawers, and the air bottle storage compartment.
To ensure the pit cart stays as in freshly painted condition, a pit cart cover was designed to preserve the look.
The tire cart, and the two tire racks were also painted in the same metallic grey. The tire racks also received new wheels, to further assist in their mobility.
Additionally, the old 2 wheel dolly and paddock jacks were retired for new Aluminum models that will serve to lighten the load and allow the crew to work more efficiently.
Further paddock enhancements will include covers for the food and picnic tables, new chairs, catering/meal supplies, and pit boards.
All enhancements add up to an increased professionalism that the team can present for our corporate partners at the track.
