Perhaps you just enjoy a day's drive along some fun roads with great scenery ending at a café where you’ll have time to mingle with friends.

Or, you’re a Cars and Coffee aficionado who enjoys a Saturday or Sunday morning excursion to look at the amazing cars people bring to these events.

Finally, you might be interested in the 2023 edition of the Rally4Vets drive across America supporting the American Legion’s Be the One campaign.

Top Dog Championships

Our Tog Dog competition series is our flagship program that lets drivers of all skill levels compete for “Top Dog” honors while supporting our veteran suicide prevention programs.

No race car or race license is needed. You can use your daily driver – unless it’s a truck😀 Our format has drivers running the course at 30-second intervals, reducing risk and free SCCA instructors are available for novice drivers.

If you ever have wanted to experience driving the track, it doesn’t get any better than this.

Adventure Drive Group

A great way to de-stress from a busy week is to slip behind the wheel and enjoy a relaxing drive through some great scenery, ending with time to socialize with friends.

Rally4Vets has created a group on the Roadstr.io platform, giving us a way to create and organize trips.

Are you an organizer? We are starting an ambassador program with the goal of at least one trip in each state and territories.

PS: We sold the donated GT40 replica in the photo. It was a blast to drive but what a maintenance challenge!

Cars and Camo

If you are a car enthusiast, you most likely have been to at least one Cars and Coffee event. These gatherings are a great way to see some truly unique vehicles and meet interesting people.

We call our version Cars and Camo. We held our first event at the USS Iowa battleship in Los Angeles Harbor. It was a blast. Attendees included a World War II armored car that was used in the 1970s Rat Patrol TV series.

Our next event is scheduled for the spring at the US Army Historical Museum at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia. Watch our calendar for details.

2023 "Be the One" Tour

Rally4Vets founder Robert Hess is an American Legion life member of Post 43 in Hollywood.

The American Legion recently launched its Be The One campaign to encourage American Legion Family members, veterans, servicemembers and others to take action when they believe a veteran is at risk of suicide.

To support this program, Rally4Vets is driving across the US from Post 43 in Hollywood to Washington, DC, stopping at American Legion posts along the route of march. Supporters are welcome to meet us at rally points and or drive a segment with us.
