What attracts you to joining an electric vehicle race team?

When are you more available to help work on the project, in person or remotely? We currently meet on Wednesday at 4:30pm and Saturdays at 11am, but this could change, and will ebb and flow as the project progresses.  (Check all that apply)
What role would you envision yourself playing within the race team? This includes the obvious car-related and engineering-related things, but also video production, social media management, print production, event production (sponsor parties, etc.), sponsor relations and Jills and Jacks of all trades. 

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. 
What skills, education or experience do you have in areas that will be helpful to the team? 
The whole point of Lemons is cheap cars, but sadly, this is going to be really expensive. Lemons has waived the $500 rule for EV drivetrains and batteries because they want to see someone take the prize. We have a couple sponsors lined up, including a VERY generous contribution for our batteries, but this is still going to cost a lot of money. 

Are you willing to help with fundraising efforts? This could include emailing, calling or visiting current or potential sponsors, production of a sponsor packet, networking in the automotive and sustainable development spaces, writing project updates, packaging and shipping merchandise/parts, setting up and promoting the Patreon or fundraising events like parties, meets, demos, etc.

Do you have access to any equipment, parts or software that could be useful in the project? E.g. CNC table, 3D scanner, 3D printer (specify if capable of ceramic or metal), plasma cutter (manual or CNC), portable lift, high voltage charging equipment, electrical test equipment (we are building a bespoke battery) car hauler/trailer/van, wrecked/junk EVs, aerodynamic analysis software, fiberglass or carbon fiber fabrication, pipe benders, etc.
What is your level of interest in each of the following areas? This is not asking about skills. This is asking what you would like to do. If you don't know how to do it, that's fine, we're all learning!

Safety is incredibly important, and we will not be cutting corners on it. Nonetheless, we are taking a 23-year-old 1.5-ton hunk of metal, strapping on 900 HP worth of motors, about a ton of batteries and random junkyard parts to make it all operate. It will easily be capable of 150mph+, with 0-60 in less than 3 seconds. We will then take this in a wheel-to-wheel endurance race with 100 crappy cars with non-professional drivers...all while using enough electricity to power every home in Bellingham for about 15 minutes. 

Things could go wrong.

Do you understand that motorsport and high voltage are inherently dangerous, that nobody you're working with really knows what they're doing, and that if you get hurt, die, or think you're entitled to anything because of your time with Salish Sea EV, and anyone (including you) decides to sue for any reason, we can show this answer to the court and you're ok with the judge dismissing the case?

This is irrevocable. No backsies.
