Hawk joins Skip Barber Racing School

Former Superstar Racing Experience Chief Executive Officer Don Hawk will join the Skip Barber Racing School in 2024 as the organization’s new Chief Strategy Officer. Hawk will play an instrumental part in the continued growth and development of the Skip Barber Racing School brand which includes racing schools, safe driving academies, an iconic formula car race series, and a professional race team operating in SRO and IMSA.

Hawk played a key role in the expansion of the SRX brand and served as the series’ CEO for two years. Prior to his time at SRX, Hawk worked as Speedway Motorsports, Inc’s Chief Racing Development Officer overseeing expansion, innovation, and competition at all eleven of Speedway Motorsports’ venues.

“The Skip Barber Racing School is something I knew about and admired for the 36 years I’ve been involved full-time in racing,” Hawk said. “That interest peaked even more-so over the last two years having worked so well and directly with Owner & CEO Anthony DeMonte throughout the SRX seasons. I recently visited VIR for over 7 hours of non-stop touring of the new facility and one-on-one meetings with Anthony. I knew then that this is what I wanted to do and where I wanted to be.
