In a recent meeting with BRP's founder, Big Willie Robinson, Racers Who Care, made plans to team up in a joint National Child's Day Celebration/BRP community outreach in the form of numerous racer presentations throughout SoCal.

Brotherhood Raceway Park, which has been closed for some years due to massive construction at its site on L.A's Terminal Island, is set to re-open in October 2007. In the past, the track featured "Run What You Brung" drag racing. In its new metamorphosis, BRP includes a road racing course, a motocross track, a go kart track and a boat drag course. The track is world-renowned for its successful work with L.A. area gangs, as well as for keeping dangerous street racing at a minimum.

Racer presentations, to be made by locally-based BRP racers, as well as prominent racers who compete throughout the U.S., will be set in L.A.-area schools and kids groups.

Racers will present their very popular and effective "Quick Tips On Winning In Life."

9/23/07 ESPN RADIO INTERVIEW - BROTHERHOOD RACEWAY & RWC

RACERS WHO CARE, JOINED BY BROTHERHOOD RACEWAY PARK, WAS INTERVIEWED BY SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BROADCASTERS ASSOCIATION, ON KSPN, RADIO 710, FOR A PROGRAM TO BE AIRED ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2007 AT 5:20 A.M.

INTERVIEWERS WERE LAFERN WATKINS, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS, AND DESIREE VANDERWAL, OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BROADCASTERS ASSOCIATION.

A LIVELY DISCUSSION ENSUED COVERING A RANGE OF TOPICS FROM RWC'S UPCOMING NATIONAL CHILD'S DAY CELBRATION, TO BROTHERHOOD RACEWAY PARK'S UPCOMING RE-OPENING, TO THE TWO ENTITIES' JOINT COMMUNITY OUTREACH IN THE FORM OF RACER QUICK TIPS ON WINNING IN LIFE PRESENTATIONS, SET TO BEGIN IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA THIS IN NOVEMBER.

LED BY MS. WATKINS' AND MS. VANDRWAL'S EXPERT QUESTIONING, PAUL NORWOOD, BRP EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENCT, FABIAN AURORA, BRP VICE PRESIDENT, BROUGHT OUT THAT WHEN BRP IS OPEN AND OPERATING, NEGATIVE GANGLAND ACTIVITY THROUGHOUT THE LOS ANGELES AREA DECREASES BY 60%, AND ILLEGAL STREET RACING THROUGHOUT THE AREA STOPS COMPLETELY, BECAUSE EVERYONE IS AT BRP TUNING AND RACING THEIR VEHICLES, OR MOTORCYCLES.

AND JUDY STRAWN, PRESIDENT OF RACERS WHO CARE, EXPLAINED THAT THE RACER QUICK TIPS ON WINNING IN LIFE ARE VERY EFFECTIVE BECAUSE RACERS BASE THEIR COMMENTS ON THEIR OWN EXPERIENCES AND LESSONS THEY HAVE LEARNED IN THE SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS COMING UP THROUGH THE RANKS IN THEIR TOUGH SPORT.
