RAACE Supporters Protecting as a “Superhero”. RAACE stands for The Race the Next Generation of Racers Against Abuse of Children Everywhere and is a 501(c)(3) With the help of its supporters, RAACE has been generating awareness of the hidden epidemic of child sexual abuse for over a decade, educating parents on the facts and non-profit organization providing tools and resources that teach them how to talk to their children at every age dedicated to eliminating child of their development.

Currently there are approximately 39 million Stevie Smith Team, Knoxville www.raace.org known survivors of child abuse in America today. KNOWN survivors — and only 1 in 10 children who are sexually abused will ever tell anyone. “This is the very reason that child sexual abuse is called a ‘silent epidemic’,” says Brad Brickel, executive director, RAACE. “If children knew that it was alright to tell, they might be able to stop the abuse sooner or, hopefully, before it happens. And possibly get an abuser off the streets.” In order for parents and caregivers to protect their children, they need to be aware of the threat and feel comfortable talking with their kids about it. Experts agree that if children feel safe enough to talk openly with their parents, they are more outwardly confident and less likely to become victims of sexual abuse. They are also more likely to disclose the first sign of an abusive situation. The Racing Family Racing is a family affair, so when RAACE founder Ken Smith approached his brother and nephew, Steve Smith, Sr. and Stevie Smith, respectively, about promoting the nonprofit to the motorsports community, both of the legendary sprint car drivers eagerly agreed. Since then, numerous drivers, teams, motorsports businesses, sponsors and fans have joined the cause, offering their support by applying the RAACE logo to their cars, wearing RAACE branded uniforms, donating memorabilia for silent auctions, hosting autograph sessions, volunteering at events, reading and sharing our literature and talking about RAACE to fans around the world. www.raace.org www.raace.org Race Against Abuse of Children Everywhere | www.raace.org Thanks to our Title Sponsor!

Simone 2 To Michael and Tessa 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A driver fails without the support of a solid team, and I thank my friends, who supported me lap-after-lap. I learned a great deal from my advisor Jack Davis, who when he was not providing helpful feedback on my work, was always willing to toss the baseball around in the park. I must also thank committee members Sean Adams, Betty Smocovitis, Stephen Perz, Paul Ortiz, and Richard Crepeau as well as University of Florida faculty members Michael Bowen, Juliana Barr, Stephen Noll, Joseph Spillane, and Bill Link. I respect them very much and enjoyed working with them during my time in Gainesville. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Julian Pleasants, Director Emeritus of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and I could not have finished my project without the encouragement provided by Roberta Peacock. I also thank the staff of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. Finally, I will always be grateful for the support of David Danbom, Claire Strom, Jim Norris, Mark Harvey, and Larry Peterson, my former mentors at North Dakota State University. A call must go out to Tom Schmeh at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, Suzanne Wise at the Appalachian State University Stock Car Collection, Mark Steigerwald and Bill Green at the International Motor Racing Resource Center in Watkins Glen, New York, and Joanna Schroeder at the (former) Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC).
