The Resilience Racing Foundation is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) organization:
Focused on harnessing the profound benefits of ‘Motorsports Therapy’ for disabled veterans, and expand these racing opportunities to the para-disabled
Motorsports carry a uniquely powerful attraction and have proven to have a true psychological impact on healing and transition for many veterans. Our new Warriors2Racers program provides progressive development and a guided path to competition racing for both drivers and crew.
ADAPTIVE INNOVATION
However, cost, technical complexity, and limited access to training are currently barriers to amputee and paralyzed veterans
The Challenge - Available adaptive hand controls for passenger cars are not safe or effective for the precision and rigors of road racing, and cost effective alternatives are not currently available. We can fix this…
The Solution - Through partnership with Texas A&M Engineering Dept., modify and integrate existing components from SimAbility and MME Engineering to create a unique universal system that gives full control of brakes, throttle, and clutch with superior ergonomics and safety for racing
The Need – Sponsorship/grant funding to finalize integration of an innovative racing-specific hand controls system
The Outcome – Para-disabled heroes competing on a level playing field in full competition racing alongside their veteran teammates, and inspiring others with a leap forward in adaptive technologies.
Since 2019…
The Resilience Racing Foundation has competed in Endurance Racing with broad teams of Veteran drivers and race crews completing more than 1000 laps in competition road racing, finishing 3 Mint 400 off-road races, and the Race2Erace 22 ATV race.
Today…
We are actively seeking funding to support the hard costs associated with R&D, fabrication, and integration of MME Engineering actuator components into our road racing and off-road racing vehicles. Help us put para-disabled drivers behind the wheel of our race cars AND serve as a technical blueprint to inspire others to do the same.
100% of donations will directly support this project.
