about us
our mission
In the 1990s a group of individuals who raced stock cars in Alabama as far back as the 1940's led a movement to create the Alabama Auto Racing Pioneers an organization dedicated to the preservation of the memories and
history of Alabama Motorsports .
Today we are a 300 plus member organization ,a mix of former competitors and noncompetitor racing advocates who share a genuine love for motor racing and its history .
