In a groundbreaking collaboration, the BMW Car Club of America (BMW CCA) and Track Rabbit®, the innovative marketing-based event registration, member management, and administrative e-commerce platform, have joined forces. This transformative long-term partnership is made possible through the Andy Lally ALIVE ecosystem, marking the first of its kind in the motorsports industry. BMW CCA has endorsed Track Rabbit as the preferred choice for all BMW Chapters to switch to this year.

Following a five-year agreement signed in April, the BMW CCA board requested additional features to be completed by mid-year before the remaining chapters convert. As typical, Track Rabbit completed these features in half the allotted time, allowing most chapters to begin transitioning within the next month if they have not already. They are pioneering a new era, poised to reshape the dynamics and operations of the industry, elevating efficiency and excellence for motorsports organizations, tracks, clubs, schools, and enthusiasts nationwide.

Setting the Standard with a Unique, Curated Platform

Through innovative concepts and a strong customer feedback loop, Track Rabbit is setting the industry standard with its ever-evolving, agile, and comprehensive feature set. It is complemented with concepts and tactics, such as the use of a branded white-label site, to ensure clients are protected and can re-market to their customer base and acquire new customers in tandem. Track Rabbit also offers generous sponsorships, advanced marketing support including the use of A.I. (Artificial Intelligence), and ways to help promote within it, creating additional revenue streams for organizations like BMW CCA and many more.

Tommy Atadan, Product Manager of Track Rabbit, stated, “The journey to develop the right product has spanned several years, during which we have consistently adapted and innovated, garnering recognition from organizations that have previously partnered with us or explored our platform. We are committed to this ongoing process of platform enhancement to cater to the unique needs of every organization. Notably, BMW CCA will benefit from the automation of aggregated chapter event information and data in order to make data-driven business decisions, a groundbreaking feature yet to be offered by any other platform. This aggregation also enables BMW members to seamlessly explore chapters without distractions, keeping the community aspect of the club intact.”

Partner-Centered Business Model

“Our business model has always focused on being a partner, not just a vendor. We collaborate with tracks, schools, and clubs as the backbone of the industry. Strengthening that backbone benefits everyone. This is evidenced by the growing number of clients now using Track Rabbit, including many of the top-rated tracks and largest organizations in the country, including Regions/Chapters of both the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) and the Porsche Club of America (PCA). It’s been a challenging journey, but we have finally become the organization we aspired to be,” said David Atadan, Co-founder of Track Rabbit and Andy Lally ALIVE.

Enhancing the BMW Experience

Frank Patek, Executive Director of the BMW Car Club of America, added, “I admire Track Rabbit’s tenacity and determination to rebuild after our first go-round a few years ago. Most people would have likely paused their development and put us down to a bad memory. Track Rabbit is playing the long game and has built what the industry needs and is backing it up with extraordinary service – the kind nobody gives or receives these days. They truly understand partnership.”

The Track Rabbit platform offers amplified usability tailored to support the official mission of BMW CCA: “to enhance the BMW experience for its members by providing services, support, information, and activities that promote camaraderie and encourage social awareness and responsibility.”

Eddy Funahashi, Past-President of the Board at BMW CCA, noted, “I am impressed with the caliber of people, their commitment, and their swift response in delivering on their promises. They have the integrity, vision, tenacity, and determination to build Track Rabbit the right way. We are organized into five regions and 69 chapters, with more than 55,000 active members. The Board takes this partnership seriously, and Track Rabbit has made changes swiftly, proactively developing what our organization needs to ensure a seamless transition during this platform change. As we’re going through the transition, we’re testing every step along the way to ensure the switch is easy with no lack of continuity. The Board is excited to be a part of the ALIVE ecosystem and Track Rabbit family.”
