A Race-Simulation Ride-Along
for WI Active Duty Service Members & Veterans
A partnership built to honor Wisconsin’s active duty service members and veterans through an incredible on-track experience with the Prospect Motorsports racing team.
Hooah leads the mission.
Prospect delivers the experience.
A clean, simple partnership built on one principle: Hooah is protected at every step. Hooah carries the mission and receives every dollar. Prospect handles the car, the track, the safety, and the day — as a vendor, bound by contract to deliver.
- ›Every donated dollar goes directly to Hooah
- ›Hooah issues all donor documentation
- ›Hooah selects the participants
- ›Prospect is paid as a vendor from funds Hooah already holds
- ›An enforceable contract binds Prospect to deliver the event as agreed
Five areas for review
Liability Waiver
A participant ride-along waiver, adapted from Autobahn’s track waiver and expanded for passengers at speed. Being finalized by our Illinois attorney; we ask that Hooah’s counsel review it as well.
- Passenger / ride-along framing — written for participants riding as passengers while a professional driver operates the car at speed.
- Medical-fitness representation — participants confirm fitness for a high-G experience.
- Named releasees — Prospect, Hooah, Autobahn, drivers, crew, backup-vehicle provider.
- Illinois governing law — the venue’s jurisdiction governs enforceability.
- Media/likeness terms — handled carefully; commercial use kept separate (see Section 5).
Prospect provides
- Final, attorney-approved waiver
- The Autobahn track waiver
Hooah manages
- Collecting signed waivers ahead of event day
- Applying selection within the safety criteria
Insurance Parameters
Coverage sourced through K&K Insurance for a two-day passenger ride-along event. Structured so all parties, including Hooah, are protected.
- Passenger ride-along coverage — the primary exposure: civilians in a race vehicle at speed.
- Event / general liability for the two-day event.
- Additional-insured status coordinated with Autobahn’s requirements.
- Hooah named as an additional insured — your organization is covered under the event policy.
- On-site medical & safety provided by Autobahn as part of the venue.
How the money flows
Donors give to Hooah directly. Funds land in Hooah’s account. Hooah controls all money and issues every donor acknowledgment and tax document.
Prospect is paid as a vendor at a fixed, fair-market rate. Donor funds stay entirely within Hooah’s accounts.
Hooah pays Prospect from funds it already holds, ahead of the event. Prospect is contractually bound to deliver the event to the standards and timeline in the agreement.
Both parties hold their proceeds ahead of the event. Hooah holds its mission funds; Prospect is paid as a vendor — and is contractually bound to deliver the event to the standards and timeline in the agreement.
Hooah / PMG Agreement
$66,000 to Hooah’s mission across 44 rides — a starting proposal to shape together.
Invoicing & payment
- Prospect is paid a fixed vendor fee per ride — a flat rate, not a percentage of donations.
- Payable from funds Hooah has already collected and holds — funded entirely from donations in hand.
- Both parties hold their proceeds ahead of the event. Hooah holds its mission funds; Prospect is paid as a vendor — and is contractually bound to deliver the event to the standards and timeline in the agreement.
Payment activation
Prospect invoices in four equal 25% installments, each activated as donations reach a funding milestone — paid from funds Hooah already holds.
Contingencies
- Prospect controls final scheduling to ensure a safe, successful event; weather or mechanical issues trigger rescheduling under the contract.
- Performance standards, timeline, and remedies are defined in the agreement and enforceable by Hooah.
Logistics & Planning
Prospect coordinates
- Track date & venue (Autobahn, Joliet IL)
- Race car + reserved backup vehicle
- Drivers, pit crew, on-track safety
- Hotel rooms secured — 22 for participants + 3 for Hooah personnel, two nights
- Food, hospitality, donor signage
- Content capture & production
- Pre-event participant safety call (~1 week prior)
- Weather / mechanical contingency & rescheduling
Hooah leads
- Selects participants (veterans & active duty)
- Coordinates participant carpools to Joliet
- Confirms each meets medical-fitness criteria
- Collects signed waivers ahead of the day
- Receives all funds & issues donor documents
- Carries the mission — no pressure to fundraise beyond comfort
A dignified, safe, unforgettable ride
- Pre-event video call (~1 week out) — every participant learns what to expect, safety expectations, what to wear, and how the day runs.
- Strict safety protocol — Prospect personnel manage every step in and out of the car and pit lane.
- The moment — each participant takes a 22-minute ride at an exhilarating pace, then steps out to their own reaction. That moment is the heart of it.
- A post-ride cool-down — every rider takes a few minutes to settle and make sure they feel good before heading out.
- Honor & experience — built to dignify the participant, with Hooah’s mission at the center.
Promotional Planning
How we build awareness for Hooah’s mission — while keeping every donation clean and your charitable status fully protected.
What Prospect provides
- A professional landing page explaining the event & the joint effort for active service members and veterans
- Hooah’s payment links featured on the page — funds flow directly to Hooah
- General event footage & ride-along reaction content, branded Hooah × Prospect
Donor recognition
- Named acknowledgment at the event (donor wall, signage, program)
- Hooah’s logo featured prominently on race suits & car
- Genuine recognition of their support of the mission
What we’re asking of Hooah
Legal review. Hooah’s counsel reviews the agreement, waiver, and promotional plan and blesses the event as safe for Hooah to participate.
Solicitation registration. The parties confirm with counsel whether PMG must register under Wisconsin charitable-solicitation law (Wis. Stat. ch. 202) and complete any filing before fundraising begins — an administrative step handled early so it stays off the event timeline.
Participant selection. Hooah confirms it will select the veterans & active-duty participants within the medical-fitness criteria.
Banking & payment links. Hooah sets up the donation channel so all funds flow directly to Hooah.
Approval to build the pipeline. With counsel’s blessing, we begin formal fundraising; until then, we warm interest.
×Wisconsin heroes, honored on the track.
