Racing For Heroes specializes in getting Veterans, military families, and civilian Patriots together for a glimpse into how motorsports is so inherently applicable as a highly effective form of recreational therapy for Veterans and supporters alike.
Many of our Team members train government agencies, military special operations teams,  executive and private security details, and individuals for pre-deployment preparation and situational awareness, for preserved safety of themselves and those they protect.
Many of the thing taught in these classes are directly applicable to daily life, and this is the foundation for our "Operation Engage" program.  We train Veterans, their families (including teenaged children), and civilians, the fundamentals of how to control a vehicle, and use their learned abilities to be prepared for adverse situations that have the opportunity to happen in every-day life.  Additionally, we incorporate the incredible amenities provided by our partner, the Virginia International Raceway, and include small arms training and shooting, off-road driving techniques, on-road driving techniques, along with classroom instruction which is based off of real-life experience that these elite operators and law enforcers encountered through their decades of work.

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty."

- John F. Kennedy

We remember those who have gone before us, paid the ultimate sacrifice, and paved the way for our great nation to move forward and prosper in a world filled with tyranny and hate.  For the love of our country, and those within it, we are ever-willing to sacrifice ourselves for the safety of our brothers.

Our great and patriotic supporters remember their loved ones who have served our great nation.  Together, we pay respect to their service and sacrifice -

RACING FOR HEROES SHOW CAR &
​MOBILE ENGAGEMENT UNIT

As a career Special Forces Operator, through multiple theaters of operation and times of conflict, our Founder, Mike Evock, has had the great privilege of meeting hundreds of the hardest working, most patriotic and dedicated friends.  These friends and fellow service members carved a solid place within Mike's heart, some of these Brothers have paid the ultimate sacrifice during their service.
This is the inspiration behind Racing For Heroes dedicating an entire race car as a rolling tribute to these Special Operations Forces Heroes.  Our Fallen SOF Tribute car travels the country in one of our KIA Tribute trailers completely wrapped with the names of ALL post-9/11 United States Military Heroes, who paid for our freedom with their lives in combat.

TEAMWORK & COLLABORATION

The Racing For Heroes Team sees that the greatest impact we can make as service-based organizations is to utilize the same basic principles that the military instilled within us, to work as a Team.  Armed with this knowledge, we work with other like-minded organizations and individuals, to create the most positive impact upon the lives of those we continue to serve.
CELEBRATING THE VETERAN STORY
As a community of Veterans, we understand and respect that we are only a small sector of a long line of courageous and dedicated patriots.  We are also a product of the communities we grew up within, and the ones we live in today.  Social interaction and community participation are key components of identifying and sharing the true value of a Veteran.  If there is a community engagement that you would like to see Racing For Heroes have a presence in, please let us know.  We look forward to seeing you at community and racing events, and affording us the honor of experiencing your stories.
