Concord, NC's Rowan-Cabarrus Community College’s 13 year old Motorsports Management Technology program will benefit from the gift of a Sprint Cup Series Toyota from the Red Bull Racing.
Red Bull fields NASCAR Cup teams for Brian Vickers (#83) and Scott Speed (#82).
The car will become a laboratory for Rowan-Cabarrus students in their Motorsports Management Program to see how NASCAR’s premier Sprint Cup cars are assembled and manufactured and it will eventually build an engine and transmission for the vehicle.
RCCC’s Motorsports Management Technology program is the first accredited motorsports-degree program in the nation and it combines the business and technical ends of the industry.
There are at least 100 graduates of the program who now work in the motorsports industry.

I feel like I missed my calling. I would have loved to study racecars in college. Thats very cool that Redbull is giving back. While I don't drink energy drinks they do have a great business going.
David * their air races are awesome. I lived in NoCa and saw them in SF bay!!!! NASCAR teams are very generous.
I originally went to school to be a mechanical engineer... I wanted to race. Too bad they didn't have a program like this back in the Dark Ages when I could have used it.
Lane * NASCAR certainly does give back to their communities. 100 students who are well trained for a growing profession....great partnership!!!
Wallace,
This is great. My son was fortunate to take a engineering course in college from a former NASCAR engine designer. What a great connection. :)
