B1 takes racing to the classroom
ALCOA, Tenn. (September 21, 2011) - Members of the B1 Racing Pro Extreme team spent the day Wednesday with students of Northview Elementary (Kodak, Tenn.) and nearby Alcoa Elementary schools discussing the excitement of professional racing and the safety aspects associated with the operating of vehicles both on and off the track.
Students got a close-up look at the Pro Extreme Corvette campaigned by B1 Racing in ADRL competition as well as the safety equipment that protects it's driver, Joshua Hernandez.
"It is so great to see the eyes of these young kids light up when they see something like this for the first time," crew chief Rick Hickman commented.
"The children have great questions and it is a pleasure to be able to share the racing experience with them," he said.
And racing experience is something Hickman is no stranger to. His racing resume spans decades and has notable entries from top race teams across the country and around the world.
The experience continues for the B1 Racing team this weekend as competition in the ADRL Summit Racing Equipment Ohio Drags commences in Norwalk, Ohio. For more information and live timing, video and results, visit www.adrl.us.
ABOUT B1 RACING:
As the country of Bahrain's official drag racing ambassadors, B1 Racing's goal is to race throughout the Middle East and United States creating exposure and excitement for Pro Modified drag racing. It is team owner Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa's vision to educate young and aspiring drivers throughout the world about motorsports and the thrill of drag racing, thereby encouraging more teams to be a part of what he hopes will become the motorsport with the largest worldwide participation and following after Formula One. For more information about the team, visit www.B1racing.com.
ABOUT BAHRAIN:
The Kingdom of Bahrain is an island country in the Persian Gulf just off the east coast of Saudi Arabia and north of Qatar. Its position in the Gulf makes it a key player in the management of trade throughout the region. Under the leadership of the King, Sheikh Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, the country has the fastest growing economy in the world and is a leader in the region for developing human rights and a strong middle class.
