    10 teens die every day in the US in accidents caused by careless or reckless driving. The Redline Resistance Driving Force is a volunteer panel that will create a driver mastery program that embraces the love of driving while making sure it's done right. There's a program being developed by them that will really make a difference and save lives...because young people will be creating it.

    We are looking for 50 15-23 year-olds for the panel.

    Candidates should be one of the following:

    - Someone who has experienced the needless loss of a friend or loved on in a vehicle crash
    - Someone who is considering a career in non-profit, public health and safety or working with teens
    - Someone who just genuinely wants to do something that will really make a difference

    For more information, or to find out how to apply, visit us online

    Thanks for posting this... This sounds like something very interesting and I will definitely do the application. I am 17 so this applies to myself. I personally do a lot of charity work either being hands on work or fundraising money for charity through the Concours I run. I especially like anything having to do with cars and who knows if I can make a difference in safety but I will certainly try my best! Who else is going to give this a try?

    Just curious Emil but where did you hear about the Redline Resistance Program?

    A very smart friend of mine is the agency working on developing the program. She asked me for some input. She's a super smart girl and I said I'd do anything to help.

    Also, if anyone can cross post this message in other forums where you have cred, that'd be great. I'd do it, but I have limited juice in other places and I don't want this message to be confused with SPAM. This is sort of important.

    I think it needs to get in to:

    - Scion Life
    - z06 Forum
    - Club Lexus
    - VW Vortex
    - SVT Performance
    - Exotic Car Forum
    - Beyond the Quarter
    - Club RSX
    - Other...

    I'll get it in to EvolutionM.net, e46fanatics, ***********, and Digital Corvettes...

    My son is 16, and as many of you know he is a car/driving enthusiast. I will ask him about this.

    Same for me and my son, but I had him apply anyway. I told him his input would be used to make driving safer for younger adults.

    Had the same feeling. If it is what I think it is, it will be a good idea.
