"ACCESSIBLE RACING HAS BROUGHT A REMARKABLE DREAM TO REALITY FOR OUR VIETNAM VETERAN WHO THOUGHT HE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET BEHIND THE WHEEL OF A CAR AND EXPERIENCE THE THRILL OF RACING. BY ADAPTING THE CAR TO ACCOMMODATE DISABILITIES, A LIFE CHANGING EVENT WAS BROUGHT TO THIS MAN AND HIS CONFIDENCE HAS SOARED BECAUSE OF THE EXPERIENCE.
THE VXP POWERED BY iRACING WILL ALLOW VETERANS ACROSS THE US TO ENGAGE IN VIRTUAL RACING AND COMPETE AGAINST OTHER VETERANS WHO SUFFER FROM SIMILAR DISABILITIES. THIS PROGRAM WILL PROVIDE MEANINGFUL OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK ON HAND AND EYE COORDINATION AND EXPERIENCE THE THRILL AND COMPETITIVE EDGE OF RACING. OUR HOME WILL BE WORKING ON FUNDRAISING EFFORTS TO OBTAIN TIS PROGRAM SO THAT WE CAN ENJOY THE REAL LIFE EXPERIENCES OF RACING IN OUR VETERANS HOME."Lisa A. Williams, ADC, CALA, New Jersey Veteran's Memorial Home in Vinland
