Hi AZPVA,
Doug Beckley, PVA Sports & Recreation Dept., suggested I contact Chapter
Executive Directors & Presidents and ask to have you guys poll members
regarding a NEW program we hope will make life more complete for NASCAR
fans with disabilities.
Random phone surveys to other Chapters returned positive feedback, now
i ask for your help surveying individual members of your Chapter and let
us know the level of interest in a New England stock car driving experience
for physically challenged race fans.
Abilities Racing NASCAR is the FIRST arrive and drive NASCAR racecar modified
for physically challenged people to experience motor sports. Chassis modifications
include dual break, dual gas, and dual steering on the instructors side.
Drivers side has safety engineered and fabricated door opening, EGB (electric
gas & break) attached to the roll cage that opens like a passenger
car door, standard steering wheel that can be removed and replaced with
interchangeable horizontal steering assembly. Variable effort steering
is powered by motors and vacuum tanks in addition to up motors, push button
power shift automatic transmission, push/pull gas & break.
We hope stock car driving experience will be offered by PVA as an incentive
to be active in the Chapter operations in the same manor as Fishing Trips,
Wheel Chair Games, Shooting Tournaments etc.
Please check out my web site, and click on NY Metro Abilities Expo video
link on the front page. I will forward testimonial from interest groups
at your request.
Hanaford Associates Abilities Racing received inquiries from several common
interest groups; Abilities Expo, Sports Car Club of America, Porsche Club
of America, Paralyzed Veterans, United Spinal Association, & NRA Disabled
Shooters.
Porsche Club of America has invited us to test & tune Sept 2 on an
autocross course set up at Meadowlands Stadium, East Rutherford NJ.
Winter months may dictate events scheduled in the South Eastern United
States based on level of interest. Currently we are considering packages
at Walt Disney World Speedway & Phoenix International Speedway.
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Sincerely, Brian E. Hanaford
