Our mission is to pave the way for aspiring individuals in motorsport and STEM fields, especially those from underrepresented communities.
At Path to the Pits, we provide unique motorsport exposure for ambitious women and young adults, 18-28, who are eager to make their mark in the industry. From the adrenaline of the racetrack to the intricacies of the critical team functions like travel, logistics, marketing, multimedia, and communications - we’ve got it all covered.

If you are a career minded individual and 18-28 years old, Path to the Pits has 3 ways to get involved:
1. Sign up and participate in our on-track events. When we come to your local race track, we hope to have you join us for an exclusive career development day on track.
2. Participate as a volunteer. Grow your skills with Path to the Pits, contributing to operations, social media team, logistics, etc.
3. Sign up to participate in our virtual webinars coming in 2025. Online learning from industry professionals including Q&A and potential mentorship opportunities!

If you are selected for the program, you will be notified via email after the registration period has closed. This ensures everyone has an equal opportunity to participate.

Great question — if you’re not selected, we’ll be sure to let you know via email. There are a variety of factors that go into our selection process, including prioritizing applicants who are local to the track or have never attended a race. Sometimes we’ve already partnered with a local school, or we’ve simply hit our participant limit.
If you don’t get selected this time, please don’t take it as a reflection of your ability or experience. We aim to be inclusive of all backgrounds, regardless of skill, education, or resume. The fact that you’re interested and taking the initiative already shows you have the right mindset — and we definitely encourage you to apply again in the future!

If you’ve already taken part in a Path to the Pits on-track program, you won’t be eligible to participate again — we prioritize first-time participants for these opportunities.
That said, we’d love to keep you involved! If space allows, we may reach out for support opportunities as an ambassador to help welcome new participants and share your experience.

Of course! Though our at-track events are based in the United States, virtual events are also hosted. Be sure to stay tuned to ‘our programs’ and @Path2Pits social media for upcoming events!
