RediAuto Sport Hosts Racing Event for the Disabled Community

RediAuto Track Challenge-April 12, 2007

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 8 -- RediAuto Sport, America's only supplier of sports cars and adaptive equipment for the disabled, will host "RediAuto Track Challenge," an Autocross racing event for the disabled community on April 12, 2007. The event will be held at the Irwindale Speedway, 20 miles east of downtown Los Angeles; at 500 Speedway Drive from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and will feature more than 100 vendors of products and services specifically for the disabled community, in addition to the Autocross races, a competition among both disabled and able-bodied drivers.

"In addition to being fun and entertaining for the whole family, this event is designed to be a forum for the disabled community to learn about the many options they have to continue normal livelihood with the joys of independence; despite living with a disability that inhibits mobility," said Daniel Reyes, founder of RediAuto Sport. "We understand and know how devastating a lack of mobility can be, and we want to help the disabled community maintain active and fulfilling lives even after a life-changing injury or accident. After all what is life without an adrenaline rush once in awhile?"

RediAuto Sport is seeking both disabled and able-bodied drivers to participate in the RediAuto Track Challenge Autocross races, with the races taking place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Both disabled participants and able-bodied competitors will need to supply their own cars for the race. Race participants will have the opportunity to win a NASCAR test drive, a RediAuto Sport Soft Touch System, Long Beach Grand Prix packages and other sponsor prizes.

Additional event highlights include music, entertainment, and fun for the whole family. United Spinal Association, the Wounded Warrior Project, Budweiser and Ford Motor Company are sponsors of the event.

RediAuto Sport is also seeking additional sponsors who would like to take advantage of this unique opportunity to advertise and showcase their products or services. Interested competitors and/or sponsors should contact the company via e-mail at celia@rediautosport.com.

As an official sponsor of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach taking place April 13-15, 2007, RediAuto Sport is also searching for two disabled veterans (one male and one female) to drive a RediAuto Sport outfitted Toyota car as one of the pace cars for the Grand Prix.
