Just a few months ago, the BMW CCA Foundation’s Tire Rack Street Survival program celebrated a huge milestone: 1,000 classes held, and over 25,000 teens now equipped with life-saving skills and knowledge. The program and achievements garnered the attention of Road & Track, which recently ran a feature story about the program that includes an insightful interview with national program director Bill Wade. You can learn more about the history of TRSS and the type of hands-on driving skills taught in each class by reading the article on Road and Track.
