Video: I’ll bet your high school was never this cool
Posted by: Timothy Tibbetts on: 01/29/2013 07:50 AM in Florida, Racing, Video [ Print ]

Back when I was in high school the best classes I took included cooking (for the girls) and small engine repair. I tore that little engine down and put it back together, got it running and passed the class. Too bad I couldn’t out that engine in a go kart and get graded on that. Sounds silly? Not if you attend the Manatee School of the Arts in Palmetto, Florida.
The high school offers a different type of class that fulfills the requirement seniors students will need to graduate: the Physics of Motorsports. In the end, instructors hope the class will get more students interested in pursuing a career in engineering and even lead to racing becoming a varsity sport.
