"Back to the Tracks" is a community
awareness program that started in 1993. This program focuses on
promoting auto racing as a sport while also educating people of the
dangers associated with illegal street racing. We provide
information and services to racing enthusiasts looking to
participate in organized racing events. These organized events are
held in a safe and controlled environment. The ultimate goal is to
get people to stop racing on the street and bring it "Back to the
Tracks" where it belongs.
We work in partnership with other diverse
organizations, sponsors, community leaders and law enforcement
agencies. With the help of these partners, we reach out to our local
communities by setting up events, shows and presentations. We
structure these activities with 3 goals in mind. First and foremost,
we want to inform the general public of the dangers of illegal
street racing. Second, we want to educate them to the advantages of
participating in the actual sport of auto racing. Last but not
least, we want everyone involved in these activities to have a great
time and enjoy themselves. Fun is an integral part of any "Back to
the Tracks" event.
When you participate in the sport of auto
racing through a program like "Back to the Tracks", you are learning
and practicing the skills that make you a more efficient driver.
After all, while racing, you have to get from point A to point B as
efficiently as possible. Through expert instruction and real hands
on experience, you learn the actual driving techniques and science
behind the sport. This is similar to practicing on the street but at
a much higher level of intensity. Not only are you learning advanced
driving techniques, you're also learning the actual physics behind
the race car to help you become a better driver. The driving skills
learned and practiced at the track will only benefit you on the
street.
Through your
continued involvement and support, our organization will not only
spread the word about the dangers of illegal street racing but also
promote the wonderful sport of auto racing.
