Terms of Service

About These Terms

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Powell Racing website and any services, programs, or communications you receive from Powell Racing ("we," "us," or "our"). By using our website or engaging our services, you agree to these Terms.

Powell Racing is a Texas-based motorsports team. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.

Use of the Website

You agree to use our website only for lawful purposes and not to interfere with its operation, attempt to gain unauthorized access, or use it in any way that could harm Powell Racing, our clients, or other visitors.

Information on the website is provided for general informational purposes. We do our best to keep it accurate and up to date, but we make no warranty that all content is current, complete, or error-free.

Inquiries & Bookings

Submitting a contact form or sending us an email is an inquiry, not a booking. A program, coaching session, arrive-and-drive entry, build engagement, or other service is only confirmed once both parties have agreed in writing on scope, dates, and price, and any required deposit has been received.

Payments, Deposits & Cancellations

Specific payment terms, deposits, refund policies, and cancellation windows for each program will be set out in your individual booking confirmation or service agreement. Those program-specific terms control if there is any conflict with these Terms.

Race entries, transport, and equipment costs are often non-refundable once committed to a sanctioning body or vendor. We will be transparent about which costs are recoverable at the time of booking.

Assumption of Risk & Release

Motorsports activity — including but not limited to track days, HPDE, driver coaching, simulator sessions, club racing, ChampCar, and pro endurance racing — is inherently dangerous. Participation can result in serious injury, death, or property damage.

By engaging Powell Racing for any program, you acknowledge and accept these risks. You agree to sign and abide by all required waivers, releases, and rules from Powell Racing, the relevant sanctioning body, the venue, and any insurer before participating in any on-track activity.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release Powell Racing, its owners, employees, contractors, and partners from any and all claims arising from your participation in motorsports activity, except where caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Equipment, Vehicles & Damage

When you drive a Powell Racing vehicle (for example as part of an arrive-and-drive program), you agree to operate it within the limits of your skill, the rules of the sanctioning body, and any specific instructions from our team. Damage policies, insurance, and driver responsibility for at-fault incidents will be set out in your booking agreement.

When we work on your vehicle (for example as part of Track Support or Race Build Consulting), we use reasonable care, but we cannot guarantee outcomes in motorsport conditions and do not insure your vehicle against on-track damage.

Intellectual Property

All content on the Powell Racing website — including text, photography, video, logos, and graphics — is owned by or licensed to Powell Racing and is protected by copyright and trademark laws. You may view and share content in normal personal, non-commercial ways, but you may not copy, modify, or use it for commercial purposes without our written permission.

Photography & Media

We may capture photos, video, and data from events we attend together, including images of clients in our cars or in our programs. We may use these for marketing, social media, and program documentation. If you would prefer not to be featured publicly, please tell us in writing before the event.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Powell Racing's total liability arising out of or relating to your use of our website or services is limited to the amount you have paid us for the specific service giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of the page. Continued use of our website or services after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.
