Driver Development Program
The Driver Development Program is designed to provide an opportunity for potential drivers to make it in racing. Whether you are just starting out or close to making it into one of NASCAR’s top 3 Series, this program is made for you.
This program not only enhances your driving skills but has an ultimate goal on creating a well rounded driver. Speaking skills, marketing skills, and having an overall understanding of the business of racing, as well as their performances behind the wheel are all critical areas that we address.
We are not looking for the fastest driver in the world; we are looking for those individuals who have DRIVE, DEDICATION, and a POSITIVE ATTITUDE. These traits get you to the next level, without these characteristics a driver cannot perform to their greatest ability.
SPONSORS
Understand that there are only two people who will ever pay for you to race, and those two people are you or a sponsor. Lafferty will assist in giving you the skills needed to find potential sponsors, however we will not be providing you with sponsors. If you are willing to utilize the skills we have taught you in getting sponsorships we will send our marketing team to close any sponsorship deals so that you may become part of our team and drive for us.
