Trans Am Veteran David Pintaric Launches Awareness Campaign to Support Birds Eye View Project

October 18, 2025

Warren, OHIO – October 18, 2025 - Trans Am Series veteran David Pintaric is turning his racing miles into meaningful impact with the launch of a new awareness and fundraising campaign supporting the Birds Eye View Project. Beginning this weekend at Barber Motorsports Park, Pintaric will debut a striking new livery featuring the Birds Eye View branding on his No. 57 Kryder Racing machine. From that race forward, he will donate $10 for every mile he completes in competition — a pledge he has committed to maintain through the end of the 2026 Trans Am presented by Pirelli season.

The Birds Eye View Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising awareness and funding for causes benefiting veterans and first responders. Known for its unique, high-impact events and storytelling initiatives, the organization offers thrilling experiences such as veteran-led skydiving jumps, obstacle courses, and immersive film projects. Birds Eye View brings attention to the sacrifice and strength of those who serve, while giving participants and donors a firsthand look at the courage it takes to protect our country and communities.

“Birds Eye View isn’t just another charity,” said Pintaric. “They’re putting real faces to real stories and doing it in a way that grabs attention — through action, through emotion, and through community. I couldn’t think of a better organization to ride with every mile.”

Pintaric’s longstanding commitment to racing excellence has made him a respected and familiar name on the Trans Am circuit. A staple in the highly competitive TA class, he has been racing in the series for over a decade and has built a reputation for consistency, sportsmanship, and tenacity. 

His longtime team, Kryderacing, based in Canal Fulton, Ohio, has been central to that success. With a tight-knit crew and a detail-oriented approach, Kryderacing has helped establish Pintaric as one of the most respected privateers in the Trans Am competition.

Now, with his focus extending beyond the racetrack, Pintaric hopes to inspire others in the motorsports community to consider how they, too, can race for a cause.

“This isn’t just about me writing a check,” said Pintaric. “This is about bringing attention to something bigger than racing. With every lap, every mile, I want fans and fellow competitors to be reminded that we all have the power to give back.” 

The fundraising campaign will track miles raced across all events on the Trans Am calendar, from the 2025 season kick-off at Barber through the 2026 finale. Based on race distances, Pintaric’s pledge has the potential to generate tens of thousands of dollars in donations — all going directly to support the unique and powerful mission of Birds Eye View.

"The Birds Eye View Project (BEVP) partners with athletes, adventurers, and organizations to support veteran and first responder charities through bold, high-profile initiatives,” said Chris Robishaw, Executive Director of BEVP. “By pledging $10 for every mile he completes this season, David Pintaric is carrying that mission onto the racetrack. David is transforming his performance into purpose. His example shows how personal passion, when paired with generosity, can drive lasting impact for those who have sacrificed so much. This partnership demonstrates how sport and service can fuel the same winning legacy."

With the launch of this initiative, David Pintaric is blending his passion for racing with a deeper purpose. As the green flag waves this fall, every mile he races will carry meaning far beyond the finish line.

Our charity partners aren’t just chosen — they’re vetted by an independent committee to ensure they directly serve the critical needs of our heroes in uniform: active-duty military, firefighters, police, and EMS.
When it comes to fundraising, we don’t follow the rules. We break them. Our approach is unconventional, wildly experiential, and always centered around action. With our three core initiatives — The Human Performance Project, Project X, and our flagship event, Black Ops — we support high-impact charities, sponsor epic humans who go big for meaningful causes, and host immersive events that build real-world skills you carry for life.
