Join REGROUP

Since 2013 VETMotorsports had assisted over 200 Active, Guard, Reserve, Gold Star families, and veterans with service-connected injuries in over 100 motorsports events in North America.

The VETMotorsports program provides its participants with actual hands-on experience and immersion in a unique format, engaging our participants over a sustained period of time. By providing access to real-time activities and leadership roles in a high-stress motorsports environment, our participants experience the same adrenaline rush and sense of vitality and teamwork felt in active duty. They engage, participate, and contribute in events that focus on ability and moving forward rather than disability and the past.

Our program is successful because it provides participants and their families a unique wellness activity focused on developing resiliency in mind, body, and engagement; exhibiting empowerment; enhanced mental health; and are provided opportunities in leadership and peer mentoring. The program connects participants with their peers and engages the local community about veteran empowerment and value.
