Racing Adventures
The word race comes from a Norse word. This Norse word arrived in France during the invading of Normandy and gave the word raz which means "swift water" in Brittany, as in a mill race; it can be found in "Pointe du Raz" (the most western point of France, in Brittany), and "raz-de-marée" (tsunami). The word race to mean a "contest of speed" was first recorded in the 1510s.
Racing Adventures:In 1989, the modern era of adventure racing had clearly arrived with Gerald Fusil's launch of the Raid Gauloises in New Zealand. Inspired by the Paris-Dakar Rally, Fusil envisioned an expanded expedition-style race in which competitors would rely on their own strength and abilities to traverse great and challenging terrain. The race included all the modern elements of adventure racing, including mixed-gender teams competing in a multi-day 400+ mile race. Building on Fusil's concept, the inaugural Southern Traverse was held in 1991.

Along with the racing school, the racetrack(GrandSport Speedway) and motorsport country clubs(The American Performance Drivers Club at Willow Springs) I spend time working in the television and movie industry as a precision driver. You have seen me driving on TV at some point I guarantee it! In addition, my university education in the sport sciences and in sport and industrial psychology allows me to plan your program for your maximum benefit. At Racing Adventures we do not teach our racing school the way people have been teaching for the last 40 years like some of the other schools. We mix up our programs and tweak them regularly to teach you the way that you learn, the way you will have fun, and the way you will experience the most personal success! You will find that many of the professional drivers you see on TV today were or are products of my coaching efforts. You will also find many of the fortune 500 CEO's and their teams have also experienced and enjoyed the fun and education we have to offer.

Adventure racing (also called expedition racing) is a combination of two or more endurance disciplines, including orienteering (if an orienteering map is used) and/or navigation (when non-orienteering maps are used), cross-country running, mountain biking, paddling and climbing and related rope skills. An expedition event can span ten days or more while sprints can be completed in a matter of hours. There is typically no suspension of the clock during races, irrespective of length; elapsed competition time runs concurrently with real time, and competitors must choose if or when to rest.

Adventure racing historically required teams to be of a specified size and to include both men and women, but many races no longer restrict team size and include single-sex divisions. Some also include age-based categories.
