Magic in the Mountains Disabled Driving Experience to be held
June 26th at Loon Mountain, Lincoln NH

Lincoln, NH - Accessible Racing, in conjunction with New England Disabled Sports, Loon Mountain and White Mountain Motorsports will hold a stock car driving experience June 26, 2009 in the Lincoln-Woodstock area of New Hampshire. This event will allow newly injured veterans and active disabled athletes to learn defensive driving skills that they will employ to experience the world's only "Arrive & Drive" stock car driving experience for persons with physical disabilities at White Mountain Motorsports Park.

Loon Mountin, in Lincoln, NH, will host the first driving skills school where students will learn the fine art of driving by applying classroom knowledge while driving under the close supervision of an experienced instructor. The instructor will be evaluating base line driving skills from the passenger seat, such as: under steering, over steering, steering with the throttle and threshold braking. These basic building blocks are essential car control skills that prepare drivers with accident avoidance maneuvers to be applied in real world situations.

White Mountain Motorsports Park, in North Woodstock, NH will then host the oval track driving experience under the lights which will emphasize the relationship of driver and car, giving the students the opportunity to learn their limitations and expand the capabilities needed to develop safe driving skills and habits conducted in a controlled environment.

Accessible Racing will be demonstrating their all new "VXP" or "virtual x-perience" driving simulator which is designed to allow disabled drivers to virtually test drive and train anywhere at any time. VXP uses iRacing.com software featuring real-time, internet based simulated racing competition for newly injured and active disabled athletes giving them the opportunity to hone driving skills, compete against other hand controlled drivers and emphasize multiple ladders of advancement.

New England Disabled Sports will be running the event out of their new facility at Loon Mountain. During the event participants will have the change to try out the new fleet of handcycles (hand powered bicycles) recumbent bicycles and Terra Trek hiking wheelchairs which are available for use throughout the summer months at New England Disabled Sports.

Pre-Registration is required for this event. Day of the event at Loon Mountain will begin at 9:00 am on June 26th, driving experience starts at 10:30 am. All are welcome to come and watch this exciting one of a kind event.
