Nashville, January 15, 2012
LA Racing USA
is bringing the hottest NASCAR driving experience in the country to Nashville for the full 2012 racing season.

LA Racing USA will be based at the Tennessee State Fairgrounds Speedway providing the general public an opportunity to get behind the wheel of real NASCAR racecars… and drive at speed… no racing license required!

LA Racing USA is the nationwide division of Los Angeles-based LA Racing, which operates at renowned Toyota Speedway of Irwindale in Southern California. Tens of thousands of racing enthusiasts, including major celebrities, have gone through LA Racing’s NASCAR driving experience, which has also hosted events for corporate giants such as Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard, and has boasted sponsors Intel, the Los Angeles Dodgers, Lucas Oil and others.

LA Racing’s visionary and CEO, Jim Cohan, is a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur who has launched several successful business ventures. Now Cohan has partnered with The Borchetta Group, run by established marketer and racing champion, Mark Borchetta (yes, of that Borchetta family), to help expand LA Racing across the country. And they have chosen Nashville as their first stop. “Mark and I share a similar vision and a huge passion for business,” says Cohan. “Bringing his company on as a full-blown partner to take LA Racing nationwide is a perfect fit for us.” Borchetta is an award-winning marketer whose successes include major sponsorship deals for Danica Patrick and Taylor Swift.

On the ground in Nashville LA Racing USA is looking forward to working with local businessman and racing champion, Tony Formosa. Formosa has been awarded the speedway management contract for the 2012 season, and Borchetta believes he will be a great partner. “It has been a real pleasure getting to know Tony,” said Borchetta. “He is right there with his vision and his commitment, and his success in both racing and business shows that he walks the walk. This will be a great opportunity.”
