Coming this fall, and based on your feedback, we are doing a series of 3 How To Get Into Racing / Next Steps webinars, starting on Monday 4th October at 8pm ET in the evening, and running every other week.
Join panelists Sabre Cook, Hannah Grisham, Emily Linscott and Chloe Chambers as they walk you (and your parents) through the transition from karting to cars. We'll talk about the open wheel ladders, or starting on the various sports car ladders, and the budget numbers involved with those pathways.
Like so many of the pathways and ladders in motorsport, the many ladders to NASCAR can be confusing and hard to navigate. Julia Landauer and Amber Balcaen are two racers who have both traveled these pathways personally, and who continue to travel these pathways, and they will be online to help you understand what your next steps on these many ladders might be.
When you didn't grow up in motorsport, or start racing at a young age, the idea of getting into racing can be intimidating, and the pea-soup of acronyms around the various series and opportunities don't help. This webinar is specifically for those who want to start racing later in life, or who started racing later, but still want to figure out what their next steps are. Your hosts are our founder and amateur racer Lynn Kehoe, amateur racer Mandy McGee, the first woman to win an SRO America Pro-Am GT3 race, Erin Vogel and one of our Athlete leaders, Pippa Mann - a racer who works in many of the pro-am paddocks earning her living as a coach and co-driver.
Our first "How to Get Into Racing / Next Steps online event turned into a two hour marathon via Zoom.
