S3E80: NASCAR + A Police Officer + Kids Equals...

S3E80: NASCAR + A Police Officer + Kids Equals...

Within 10 minutes of Police Officer Todd Smith’s first visit to a NASCAR race, he knew he had to do  something with motorsports to help children succeed, especially at risk youth. The next day he was on the phone talking to NASCAR race teams to start Fuel For Success. The program involves Police Departments from across the Country, NASCAR and corporate sponsors helping to assist law enforcement and kids. Todd also talks about the common myths people believe about police and their role in the community.
