Right Track Racing is committed to promoting safe driving practices and raising awareness about the dangers of stunt driving and street racing. Our goal is to educate drivers on the importance of taking their driving skills to the racetrack where they can satisfy their need for speed in a controlled environment.
We offer a one-hour presentation delivered to schools and other community groups. The presentation educates the audience about the dangers and consequences of street racing / stunt driving and then presents safe, legal, and responsible alternatives.
The presentation references fatal collisions which the presenters personally responded to as police officers. Also featured is an interview with the family of an individual who was killed as a result of street racing, and the trauma the family experienced as a result.
