Parella Motorsports Holdings (PMH) Powering Diversity Scholarship
Entering its fifth year, the Parella Motorsports Holdings (PMH) Powering Diversity Scholarship continues to build a more diverse field, while empowering drivers from a variety of backgrounds to participate in PMH-owned race series. With seven series under the PMH banner, drivers are able to utilize the assistance to race in Sportscar Vintage Racing Association (SVRA), the Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli, Formula Regional Americas Championship (FR Americas), Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.), Ligier JS F4 Series (JS F4), International GT (IGT) or Prototype Sprint Series Association presented by Hankook (PSSA). In addition to providing financial assistance in the way of waived race entry fees or free promoter test days, the program aligns recipients with a team of executives and mentors, while providing them with a variety of media and fan engagement opportunities.
