Q: Am I eligible to participate?

Q: Do I need prior motorsports experience?
A: Not at all! We welcome participants of all experience levels.
Q: How can motorsports be therapeutic?
A: Motorsports combines physical activity, focus, and adrenaline, which can help service members channel stress and anxiety into a positive outlet. The structured environment encourages mindfulness, emotional regulation, and a sense of accomplishment.
Veterans and military personnel are heroes due to their service and sacrifices. This perception can make them reluctant to ask for help, as they are accustomed to being self-reliant and strong for others. However, they need support to address the physical, emotional, and psychological challenges that can arise from their service.
Our mission is to honor and support active duty military personnel, retirees, and veterans by providing them with opportunities for engagement and empowerment through participation in motorsports. Through our programs, we aim to foster camaraderie, skill development, and therapeutic experiences, leveraging the adrenaline and teamwork inherent in motorsports to enhance the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of our service members. We are committed to creating a community where service members can find purpose, belonging, and support, both on and off the track, as they transition through different stages of their military careers and beyond.
