Elevator Pitch
MotorHeadTM Racing Academy is a premium go-kart coaching firm utilizing state of the art
technology and the latest software to facilitate the driver development program. With the
trending use of drone technology, we train drivers in a new way that is precise and
extensive. MotorHeadTM Academy partners have combined entrepreneurial knowledge from
the accredited university FIU and have more than 10 years of coaching experience. Motor
Head Academy plans to carve a niche in the motorsports market by focusing on training kids
in the go kart industry.
The Company
Notes
Due to the fact that we are targeting a younger market of racers, we are hitting a big hole in
this market. Most driving schools and coaching services do not specifically target ages 5-15
years old. Since we will be hitting that younger age, especially the 5-13 year olds, it gives us a
very big advantage over other competitors. Motor Head Academy is hitting this void in the
industry at a time where very few people see all the profitability, short term and long.
The Company
— Professional coaching company focused on
karting
— Target market is younger kids
— Located and operating within 100 mile radius
of Sonoma,California
— Key component of our business strategy is
◦ Building relationships with our clients from ayoung
age
◦ Unique technology used to coach
Our direct competitors are Introduction to Karting, individual coaching, and
Techniques of Karting; our indirect competitors are coaching schools like Skip Barber, Allen
Berg Racing School, Ford Racing School and some indoor racing facilities such as K1 Racing,
Xtreme Indoor Karting, and LeMans Karting. These are the competitors that actually
dominate the market share, but they are only located in certain parts of the U.S. We are
located in Sonoma California; they are not located near our area of California, so we will be
able to take a big chunk of that market due to the fact that so many racers in that area have to
travel so far in order to train. Us being located there makes it way more convenient and
affordable for the parents of these racers. We also have a partnership with the Sonoma
Speedway.

Notes
We offer drivers a premium coaching service that is explicit and extensive. We offer
seasonal packages that parents can adjust to their needs depending on their budget and
experience. The technology we offer facilitates and speeds up the learning process for any
driver. Now drivers will have the visual aid accompanied by a software that explains, in detail,
their mistakes. This is ideal for kids who are just starting off and learning because they can
quit bad habits before they really start.
Our drones and software is top of the line new technology, that has never before been
utilized in racing coaching. It is $500 per session, which we had tested in free trials at the
Sonoma Speedway. 70% of the parents and their children were satisfied with their results
and would pay for our service. Also, a customer value added is the specialized service, use of
trending technology, and the personalized one-on-one training. The training sessions will be
3 hours per day and they may choose to go as many times as they want or as we can fit them
into the weekly schedule.

Notes
Primary market research in the go-kart industry is vital because it is a niche market in
the motorsports world. The CEO of Motor Head Academy traveled to Sonoma California to
attend a race event and collect market data. The registration office of Sonoma Speedway
confirmed that there was a total of 700 people who attended the race event, this includes
spectators, mechanics, and family member of drivers. The registration office also confirmed
that there were 300 drivers registered to race at this event and 200 of these drivers were
below the age of 15. These 200 drivers fall under our market segment of drivers between the
ages 5-15. The Sonoma Speedway hosts 17 go kart race events throughout the year.
The secondary research in the market helps the company understand market trends,
and what customers value in the go-kart industry. According to Ekartingnews an estimate of
80% of drivers household income is above +100,000 in California. Further market research
shows what potential customers value, this includes results in races, safety, and improving
lap times. The money customers, more specifically parents of potential customers in our
market segment, are willing to spend in a race event to improve lap times in order to attain
better results reflects the true monetary value in these aspects of racing. Customers are
willing to spend up to $15,000 in one race event in order to achieve better results. This
includes any method of improvement whether its blueprinting engines, better race
equipment, and/or coaching.

Segments
Notes
Majority of race fans go out of their way to buy products and services offered by companies
involved in motorsports, including coaching and training amenities. Our customer segment is
contingent on driver’s age, motorsports experience, and commitment to sport. The karting
segmentations start from the Micromax category which includes children ages 5-8, the
Minimax category includes children ages 8-12, and the Junior category which is children ages
12-15. Level placement depends on driver experience. The segment includes children with
parents that have extensive disposable income ($100,000+) aspiring to invest in the
development of their racing career. Psychographics will include clients willing to spend that
disposable income on hobbies/interests to shape their child’s future. 27% of our clients are
expected to earn $45,000+ (Blue Collar) annually, and 14% range from $35-$45,000
(Mechanical/ Electrical/ Vocational).
The average age of our clientele is 60% ages 19-35, and 15% under the age of 18. 80% of our
clientele will be men and 20% women. According to these statistics, men are more likely to

Industry
Notes
There are not many direct competitors in our market. There are introduction to karting
schools which dedicate themselves to training aspired drivers of all age ranges. Within that
industry there are also many individual coaches who train amateur drivers, starting as young
as 3 years of age. These coaches do not use any technology to train the drivers, usually their

only form of training is by timing their lap time until it improves. Lastly, our last direct
competitor would be the Techniques of Karting. These are other karting schools that trains
students of all ages the skill behind successful karting. Our competitive advantage is that we
are more individualized and dedicate ourselves to a specific age range of drivers so improve
their driving skills in more detail.
Our indirect competitors include general go-kart racing schools like: Skip Barber, Allen Berg
Racing School, and Ford Racing School. There are also indoor racing facilities: K1 Racing,
Xtreme Indoor Karting, and LeMans Karting. These are racing teams that meet all general
racing needs, they do not specifically focus on a certain task. The indoor racing facilities are
for fun and are not dedicated to the sport.
Our market segment potential is about $97 million within 100 mile radius of Sonoma, CA. Our
penetration rate is calculated to be 55% of total kids and racers per team, excluding
staff/techs/merchants. Finally, our motorsports segment growth rate is 8.3%.
Business Position and Strategy
Business Position and Strategy
— Business Strategy
◦ Bootstrapping method
— Startup funds à family/friends
— Leasing equipment/track à dramatically minimizes costs
— No one dominant leader in market share
— Core Competency:Coach-Driver relationship
— Win a race à get sponsored à publicity!
— Competitive Strategy
◦ Exploiting weakness and leapfrogging competition
— Take advantage of competitions weakness in technology
and personalization
— Complimentary:physical and nutritional assistance
Notes
In terms of our Business strategy, we lean towards using a “bootstrapping” method in
the sense that our startup funds would primarily be derived from our friends and family.
More specifically, $100,000 dollars would be given to us by our grandmother and another 20
thousand would be invested by the founder and co founder. In order to minimize costs as
long as possible, we require to lease our equipment for at least the first five years in
operation. We believe our business strategy is sustainable seeing that market share is pretty
equally divided amongst our competitors, thus there is no one dominant leader in this
industry. Our core competency would be the irreplaceable relationship between the driver
and the coach. The fact that we are a service firm focusing on coaching younger kids serves as
an advantage to us because relationship building could potentially be stronger and more
loyal. Lastly, a very important aspect in our business is sponsoring our drivers. The more
races our drivers win, the more likely we are to sponsor them, and in sponsoring them this
will help us with our publicity.
In terms of our competitive strategy, we plan to exploit the weakness of our competitors
and thus leapfrog them. More specifically, we plan to take advantage of their weaknesses in
technology and personalization of service. We plan to use different mediums of technology
than traditionally used in racing schools to more specifically analyze our clients racing
abilities and how to improve them. Seeing that there is a trending use of drone technology
expanding from the military to regular civilian purposes, we plan to implement this drone
system into our services as well as accompanying this technology with the Dartfish software
that goes hand in hand with this technology. We also want to emphasize how important it is
for us to form and maintain relationships with our clients, rather than give a service a couple
of times and end the relationship there. Our customer service and relationship strategy is
similar to that of Nordstroms, where Nordstroms competitive advantage Is the relationship
built between salesperson and customer. On top of our competitive strategy we also would
like to offer physical and nutritional assistance to our clients, something that is typically
overseen by all drivers and coaches, as a complimentary bonus to our service.
Sales and Marketing Strategy
Notes
Our coaching staff is in charge of the sales and marketing of our business. Each
member has a specific job function to help our sales profit increase and to get in touch with
our potential customers to market our service. Sales Orientation is provided by our
headquarters, as well as uniforms for our staff and promotional materials. Our marketing
strategy includes reaching our potential clients in racing events and setting up tents with
promotional advertisements offering a free test-sessions for all drivers interested in our
services. That will give us a chance to speak to drivers and explain our service in detail while
letting them give us their input of what their looking for in a coaching service. While they
visit our tent, we will be able to show them the dart fish technology along with the drones.
We will be able to provide a visual presentation to explain how the use of our technology can
improve the driver’s lap time.
Our service has a lot to do with referrals. It is important to get feedback from our
clients to make sure they are satisfied with the service in order for them to refer our service

children ages 5-15, we need to make sure our signs and advertisements are appealing to
them and catch their attention in order for them to become interested. Catching the eyes of
parents is also important, but research shows their mostly interested in results in order to
provide the best form of training for their children. Advertisements of our business will also
be shown at speedways in Sonoma and surrounding speedways within 100-mile radius.

Notes
Daily operations would be relatively consistent. Our primary activities would be
coaching session, attending racing events to promote ourselves, and doing basic operational
activities in our base (the warehouse). Our main office with our databases and
client/business information would be located at our warehouse in Sonoma, California at a
relatively close proximity to the Sonoma Speedway where most of our sessions will be held.
Tents with our drones, laptops and software will be set up at the speedway whilst training
our clients. These tents will also be set up with promotional information at racing events for
publicity and recruitment purposes. Once we hit year 3 we will have hired extra coaches that
will be hosting sessions at different speedways surrounding Sonoma as well. Our clients will
be training to better their driving abilities and techniques towards the goal of doing better in
their races. The better our clients do in their races, the more likely they are to be sponsored
by us, thus improving our publicity.
In terms of the operations of our founder and cofounder directly, The Founder could
primarily be in charge of managing the cofounder and making sure all appointments are
being met, data management is being kept smoothly and marketing campaigns are being
effective. The founder also manages secondary and other extra coaches to make sure their
clients are improving their race times, winning more races, and their skills are improving as
well. Our co-founder manages the technician to make sure all equipment is maintained and
up to date. The co founder also manages the secretary and makes sure the secretary is
maintaining books, routinely updating client information and assisting in social media
marketing.
We would be investing $2,000 in safety effort and technology. This money would be
invested in testing our technology to ensure it is safe and effective. Our primary research
indicates that one of the main safety concerns was the safety of our drones in air as well as
the safety of the driver. Seeing that the driver will be in charge of supplying their own kart
(whether it be form a team they are already in or from a leisure kart) the responsibility of the
safety of the kart is not on our company although we do invest in making sure there is a
safety team at the speedway during our coaching sessions. Our investment in safety would
also go towards the drones in making sure they are safe while being in the air by, for example,
being equipped with parachutes for emergency landings. Another portion of our R&D
investment is also invested into technology and testing new drone technology. This research
and development will be relatively cheap seeing that we plan to do this research through
technology-focused universities in California. Things to be tested are comparisons between
different kinds of drones, drone potency, software capabilities when directly synced with
drones, etc.
Management, Shareholders and Directors
Our management team would primarily consist of the Founder and Co-Founder. The
founder of our company started racing at the age of 10 on the karting team his father
owned.The founder of Motorhead Academy also won two national championships and
finished 5th place in world karting finals in Italy. During his 13 years of experience karting, he
established a network of potential clients for Motorhead Academy, thus facilitating the sales
generation of starting up. In terms of the co founder, the co founder has 6+ years of
experience in marketing for Homestead Speedway as well as an MBA in Business and
Entrepreneurship. During her time in Homestead she networked with professional karting
teams and gained insight on management and marketing mediums required to be successful
in the karting industry.
The founder would be primarily in charge of maintaining the integrity of the coaching
experience and starting relationships with clients. The founder would also be in charge of
general operations in the warehouse and on the track as well as recruiting clients with the

The founder and co-founder is the management team. The secondary coach would be
hired in year 2~ in assisting with sessions once our clientele pool increases. Lastly, the other
employee on board would be the technician in charge of setting up our drones, software and
other technological team. The Founder would be in charge of annual and quarterly
performance reviews of all coaches (as well as faculty/staff) and coaches/employee’s with
the best performance reviews will be rewarded accordingly. The race results of coaches in
particular will be noted periodically and summed at the end of the quarter for recognition.
Risks and Assumptions
Risks and StrategicAssumptions
— Main assumption: That our coaching service  will improve drivers
performance in amore efficient way than the traditional methods
— — Risk: If customers don’t improve skills,drop times,and attain better results
there will be no need for our service. 
  
— — Assumption:Our clients will pay $500 per session
— — Risk: if price is too low we will be losing profits if price is to high customer
retention will be difficult
 
— — Assumption: Sales Driver àthe best way to reach our customers is
through race events
— — Risk: not reaching our potential market,competitors stealing market share
by using other sales driver
— — Assumption:  We will maintain competitive advantage through early
recognition of innovative software that will be implemented in our coaching
service.This software requires months of training.This puts us at atime
advantage over our competitors that haven’t recognized the technology trend.
— — Risk: Competitors start using similar technology that we use.
Notes
When it comes our assumption that states “our coaching service will improve drivers
performance in a more efficient way than the traditional methods, we had proved it by
actually having a test at the Sonoma Speedway. 9 out of the 11 drivers saw a drop in their
time, imagine what we could do with multiple sessions. This shows our service does work.
Another assumption was “our clients will pay the $500 per session. We tested this after our
test at the Sonoma Speedway. We asked our clients and their parents if they would be willing
to pay the $500 per session and 85% said yes.
Also, one of our assumptions were that “the best way to reach our customers is
through race events. How this was tested was we offered a free trial online and a free trial at
a race event. Only 30% of online traffic considered a free trial compared to the 70% that
considered it at the race event. Our final assumption was that “we will maintain competitive
advantage through early recognition of innovative software that will be implemented in our
coaching service. This software requires months of training. This puts us at a time advantage
over our competitors that haven’t recognized the technology trend. The risk reduction for
this is our coach-driver relationship; acquiring our clients while young works in our favor.
Although technology is replicable, relationships are not.
Primary Research: Test California Sonoma Speedway Rotax National Event
Notes
The way we tested our risk and assumptions is through primary research. This test
was done previously by our CEO to test the satisfaction of the clients with our service, the
price of our service, and the willingness to commit for another session. Even though this was
a good test there where a couple of things that could be improved upon. First the test had a
small sample size of only seven, second the test was made with long lasting clients the CEO
had in his career as a personal coach and there was a chance they could be biased due to the
relationship, and finally the CEO did this test in Miami Fl and our company is based in
Sonoma California.
Motor Head Academy decided to redo the test in a race event at Sonoma California,
The Rotax Grand Nationals. The team went to Sonoma speedway and offered a free trial to 10

learning process for the driver. The results of the test are shown above.

Notes
Year 1: This is the first year of operations. We will be breaking even within the first year of
operation with just two training sessions a day, 5 days a week, at $500 a session. This will be
a year heavily relied on for setup of our warehouse, infrastructure, databases, computers and
other technology heavily used in our on-the-field operation.
Year 2: This year will be the first year we hire another coach as an employee to start training
our clients. Because of this, this marks the beginning of multiplied sales seeing that we have
another coach to carry the weight of increased amounts of sessions requested.

Year 3: Year three is the most important year in terms of movements towards expansion. On
this year, ten new drones will be leased to be able to sustain training 2,640 sessions annually
via 5 coaches. This expansion in technology is necessary due to our increased in clients and
sessions requested. Due to this increase in business, at this point our coaches will be spread
out doing sessions not only at Sonoma Speedway but at neighboring speedways as well.
Year 4: In year 4, more coaches will be hired depending on our consumers demands.
Exit Value
Notes
Within 5 years at a interest rate of 20%, grandma’s investment will be paid back at
$298,598.4. We used a publically traded automobile supplier company called Delphi to
compute our Price/Earning ratio seeing that it was the closest relative company to ours that
is publically traded, and we multiplied year 5’s net income with their price earning ratio of
16/8% to get our exit value.

Motorhead Academy Business Plan

  • 2. Elevator Pitch MotorHeadTM Racing Academy is a premium go-kart coaching firm utilizing state of the art technology and the latest software to facilitate the driver development program. With the trending use of drone technology, we train drivers in a new way that is precise and extensive. MotorHeadTM Academy partners have combined entrepreneurial knowledge from the accredited university FIU and have more than 10 years of coaching experience. Motor Head Academy plans to carve a niche in the motorsports market by focusing on training kids in the go kart industry. The Company Notes Due to the fact that we are targeting a younger market of racers, we are hitting a big hole in this market. Most driving schools and coaching services do not specifically target ages 5-15 years old. Since we will be hitting that younger age, especially the 5-13 year olds, it gives us a very big advantage over other competitors. Motor Head Academy is hitting this void in the industry at a time where very few people see all the profitability, short term and long. The Company — Professional coaching company focused on karting — Target market is younger kids — Located and operating within 100 mile radius of Sonoma,California — Key component of our business strategy is ◦ Building relationships with our clients from ayoung age ◦ Unique technology used to coach
  • 3. Our direct competitors are Introduction to Karting, individual coaching, and Techniques of Karting; our indirect competitors are coaching schools like Skip Barber, Allen Berg Racing School, Ford Racing School and some indoor racing facilities such as K1 Racing, Xtreme Indoor Karting, and LeMans Karting. These are the competitors that actually dominate the market share, but they are only located in certain parts of the U.S. We are located in Sonoma California; they are not located near our area of California, so we will be able to take a big chunk of that market due to the fact that so many racers in that area have to travel so far in order to train. Us being located there makes it way more convenient and affordable for the parents of these racers. We also have a partnership with the Sonoma Speedway. The Product Product — Coachingservice for drivers aspiringto be professionals — Service is offered in individual sessions or packages of sessions at adiscounted rate — Session ranges 2.5-3 hours — Sessions include ◦ Breaking class ◦ Passingclass ◦ Race line ◦ Aggressive Driving ◦ Rain line ◦ Blocking
  • 4. Notes We offer drivers a premium coaching service that is explicit and extensive. We offer seasonal packages that parents can adjust to their needs depending on their budget and experience. The technology we offer facilitates and speeds up the learning process for any driver. Now drivers will have the visual aid accompanied by a software that explains, in detail, their mistakes. This is ideal for kids who are just starting off and learning because they can quit bad habits before they really start. Our drones and software is top of the line new technology, that has never before been utilized in racing coaching. It is $500 per session, which we had tested in free trials at the Sonoma Speedway. 70% of the parents and their children were satisfied with their results and would pay for our service. Also, a customer value added is the specialized service, use of trending technology, and the personalized one-on-one training. The training sessions will be 3 hours per day and they may choose to go as many times as they want or as we can fit them into the weekly schedule. Market Market Primary Research Race event in Sonoma Speedway — 700 attendants at race event — 300 drivers — 200 drivers below the age of 15 Secondary Research — 80%of go kart drivers have a household income +100,000 — Important concerns for drivers -Results -safety -improving lap times Parents are willing to spend up to $15,000 to improve times and results in one event Source:Ekartingnews
  • 5. Notes Primary market research in the go-kart industry is vital because it is a niche market in the motorsports world. The CEO of Motor Head Academy traveled to Sonoma California to attend a race event and collect market data. The registration office of Sonoma Speedway confirmed that there was a total of 700 people who attended the race event, this includes spectators, mechanics, and family member of drivers. The registration office also confirmed that there were 300 drivers registered to race at this event and 200 of these drivers were below the age of 15. These 200 drivers fall under our market segment of drivers between the ages 5-15. The Sonoma Speedway hosts 17 go kart race events throughout the year. The secondary research in the market helps the company understand market trends, and what customers value in the go-kart industry. According to Ekartingnews an estimate of 80% of drivers household income is above +100,000 in California. Further market research shows what potential customers value, this includes results in races, safety, and improving lap times. The money customers, more specifically parents of potential customers in our market segment, are willing to spend in a race event to improve lap times in order to attain better results reflects the true monetary value in these aspects of racing. Customers are willing to spend up to $15,000 in one race event in order to achieve better results. This includes any method of improvement whether its blueprinting engines, better race equipment, and/or coaching. $3.57 million (coaching services) $3.57 million (coaching services) Segment Growth Rate- 8.3% Segment Penetration Rate- 18.5% Projected 2.7% annual growth in motorsports coaching services.
  • 6. Segments Notes Majority of race fans go out of their way to buy products and services offered by companies involved in motorsports, including coaching and training amenities. Our customer segment is contingent on driver’s age, motorsports experience, and commitment to sport. The karting segmentations start from the Micromax category which includes children ages 5-8, the Minimax category includes children ages 8-12, and the Junior category which is children ages 12-15. Level placement depends on driver experience. The segment includes children with parents that have extensive disposable income ($100,000+) aspiring to invest in the development of their racing career. Psychographics will include clients willing to spend that disposable income on hobbies/interests to shape their child’s future. 27% of our clients are expected to earn $45,000+ (Blue Collar) annually, and 14% range from $35-$45,000 (Mechanical/ Electrical/ Vocational). The average age of our clientele is 60% ages 19-35, and 15% under the age of 18. 80% of our clientele will be men and 20% women. According to these statistics, men are more likely to Segments — Customer Base dependent on: ◦ Age ◦ Experience ◦ Aspired Division of Motorsports — Karting Segmentation ◦ Micromax ages 5-8 ◦ Minimax ages 8-12 ◦ Junior ages 12-15 Ø Segmentation depends on age due to physical and legal restrictions on using certain equipment. Segment from Heaven à Children ages 5-15 with experience in go-karting from $100,000+ income family within the Sonoma,CA areaand surroundingcities of 100 mile radius. Psycho-Graphics - Clients willingto spend disposable income on hobbies/interests. Sonoma,CA Demographics (100 mile radius) • 2.1 million population • 693,000 children • 273,000 children live in $100,000+ household income • 89,000 children interested in professional motorsports
  • 7. be interested in involving their children in motorsports activities. Our target market is dedicated to children with experience in go-karting from a $100,000+ income family within the Sonoma, CA area and surrounding cities of a 100-mile radius. Sonoma, CA has a population of 2.1 million people of which 693,000 are children. Out of those 693,000 children, 273,000 children live in $100,000+ household income families. And out of those 273,000 children that live in those $100,000+ income families 89,000 children are interested in professional motorsports. In result from these statistics, our market has a large potential to reach those 89,000 children who would be interested in motorsports racing. Industry Notes There are not many direct competitors in our market. There are introduction to karting schools which dedicate themselves to training aspired drivers of all age ranges. Within that industry there are also many individual coaches who train amateur drivers, starting as young as 3 years of age. These coaches do not use any technology to train the drivers, usually their Industry — Direct Competitors ◦ Introduction to karting ◦ Individual coaching ◦ Techniques of karting — Indirect Competitors ◦ Skip Barber ◦ Allen Berg Racing School ◦ Ford Racing School • Indoor Racing facilities K1 Racing Xtreme Indoor Karting LeMans Karting • Market Segment Potential:$97 million – Karting within 100 mile radius of Sonoma,CA. • Penetration Rate:55% – Total kids/Total kids+ racers per team – Excluding staff/techs/ mechanics • Segment Growth Rate:8.3%
  • 8. only form of training is by timing their lap time until it improves. Lastly, our last direct competitor would be the Techniques of Karting. These are other karting schools that trains students of all ages the skill behind successful karting. Our competitive advantage is that we are more individualized and dedicate ourselves to a specific age range of drivers so improve their driving skills in more detail. Our indirect competitors include general go-kart racing schools like: Skip Barber, Allen Berg Racing School, and Ford Racing School. There are also indoor racing facilities: K1 Racing, Xtreme Indoor Karting, and LeMans Karting. These are racing teams that meet all general racing needs, they do not specifically focus on a certain task. The indoor racing facilities are for fun and are not dedicated to the sport. Our market segment potential is about $97 million within 100 mile radius of Sonoma, CA. Our penetration rate is calculated to be 55% of total kids and racers per team, excluding staff/techs/merchants. Finally, our motorsports segment growth rate is 8.3%. Business Position and Strategy Business Position and Strategy — Business Strategy ◦ Bootstrapping method — Startup funds à family/friends — Leasing equipment/track à dramatically minimizes costs — No one dominant leader in market share — Core Competency:Coach-Driver relationship — Win a race à get sponsored à publicity! — Competitive Strategy ◦ Exploiting weakness and leapfrogging competition — Take advantage of competitions weakness in technology and personalization — Complimentary:physical and nutritional assistance
  • 9. Notes In terms of our Business strategy, we lean towards using a “bootstrapping” method in the sense that our startup funds would primarily be derived from our friends and family. More specifically, $100,000 dollars would be given to us by our grandmother and another 20 thousand would be invested by the founder and co founder. In order to minimize costs as long as possible, we require to lease our equipment for at least the first five years in operation. We believe our business strategy is sustainable seeing that market share is pretty equally divided amongst our competitors, thus there is no one dominant leader in this industry. Our core competency would be the irreplaceable relationship between the driver and the coach. The fact that we are a service firm focusing on coaching younger kids serves as an advantage to us because relationship building could potentially be stronger and more loyal. Lastly, a very important aspect in our business is sponsoring our drivers. The more races our drivers win, the more likely we are to sponsor them, and in sponsoring them this will help us with our publicity. In terms of our competitive strategy, we plan to exploit the weakness of our competitors and thus leapfrog them. More specifically, we plan to take advantage of their weaknesses in technology and personalization of service. We plan to use different mediums of technology than traditionally used in racing schools to more specifically analyze our clients racing abilities and how to improve them. Seeing that there is a trending use of drone technology expanding from the military to regular civilian purposes, we plan to implement this drone system into our services as well as accompanying this technology with the Dartfish software that goes hand in hand with this technology. We also want to emphasize how important it is for us to form and maintain relationships with our clients, rather than give a service a couple of times and end the relationship there. Our customer service and relationship strategy is similar to that of Nordstroms, where Nordstroms competitive advantage Is the relationship built between salesperson and customer. On top of our competitive strategy we also would like to offer physical and nutritional assistance to our clients, something that is typically overseen by all drivers and coaches, as a complimentary bonus to our service.
  • 10. Sales and Marketing Strategy Notes Our coaching staff is in charge of the sales and marketing of our business. Each member has a specific job function to help our sales profit increase and to get in touch with our potential customers to market our service. Sales Orientation is provided by our headquarters, as well as uniforms for our staff and promotional materials. Our marketing strategy includes reaching our potential clients in racing events and setting up tents with promotional advertisements offering a free test-sessions for all drivers interested in our services. That will give us a chance to speak to drivers and explain our service in detail while letting them give us their input of what their looking for in a coaching service. While they visit our tent, we will be able to show them the dart fish technology along with the drones. We will be able to provide a visual presentation to explain how the use of our technology can improve the driver’s lap time. Our service has a lot to do with referrals. It is important to get feedback from our clients to make sure they are satisfied with the service in order for them to refer our service Sales and Marketing Strategy — Who is in Charge? -Coaching Staff — Remaining staff,only upon request ◦ Sales Orientation provided by headquarters ◦ Uniforms & Promotional Materials supplied by headquarters • Advertisingat Speedways in Sonoma& surrounding speedways within 100 mile radius. • Reaching Clients via: – Special racing events • Setting upTent • Experienced Personnel Present • Exposition ofTechnology at Tent • Trendy Exposure • Referrals
  • 11. to other teammates and drivers. Trendy exposure is also significant to our marketing strategy in order to attract the most people we can. Especially since our target market is children ages 5-15, we need to make sure our signs and advertisements are appealing to them and catch their attention in order for them to become interested. Catching the eyes of parents is also important, but research shows their mostly interested in results in order to provide the best form of training for their children. Advertisements of our business will also be shown at speedways in Sonoma and surrounding speedways within 100-mile radius. Operations and R&D CEO (Founder) CFO (Co-Founder) - Manages cofounder based on results i.e: number of appointments, smooth data management, efficiency of marketing -Manages technician on equipment maintenance and efficiency i.e: includes making sure technology is always up to date and running smoothly, this can be reinforced by routine/random checks -Manages secondary coach on results i.e: Race improvements by time, race wins, improvements in skills per racer -Manages Secretary based on results i.e: Updated book keeping, organized data, social media updated, and appointment setup R&D - Safety efforts: testing equipment - Technology: testing new drones and capabilities with integration of software
  • 12. Notes Daily operations would be relatively consistent. Our primary activities would be coaching session, attending racing events to promote ourselves, and doing basic operational activities in our base (the warehouse). Our main office with our databases and client/business information would be located at our warehouse in Sonoma, California at a relatively close proximity to the Sonoma Speedway where most of our sessions will be held. Tents with our drones, laptops and software will be set up at the speedway whilst training our clients. These tents will also be set up with promotional information at racing events for publicity and recruitment purposes. Once we hit year 3 we will have hired extra coaches that will be hosting sessions at different speedways surrounding Sonoma as well. Our clients will be training to better their driving abilities and techniques towards the goal of doing better in their races. The better our clients do in their races, the more likely they are to be sponsored by us, thus improving our publicity. In terms of the operations of our founder and cofounder directly, The Founder could primarily be in charge of managing the cofounder and making sure all appointments are being met, data management is being kept smoothly and marketing campaigns are being effective. The founder also manages secondary and other extra coaches to make sure their clients are improving their race times, winning more races, and their skills are improving as well. Our co-founder manages the technician to make sure all equipment is maintained and up to date. The co founder also manages the secretary and makes sure the secretary is maintaining books, routinely updating client information and assisting in social media marketing. We would be investing $2,000 in safety effort and technology. This money would be invested in testing our technology to ensure it is safe and effective. Our primary research indicates that one of the main safety concerns was the safety of our drones in air as well as the safety of the driver. Seeing that the driver will be in charge of supplying their own kart (whether it be form a team they are already in or from a leisure kart) the responsibility of the safety of the kart is not on our company although we do invest in making sure there is a safety team at the speedway during our coaching sessions. Our investment in safety would also go towards the drones in making sure they are safe while being in the air by, for example, being equipped with parachutes for emergency landings. Another portion of our R&D investment is also invested into technology and testing new drone technology. This research and development will be relatively cheap seeing that we plan to do this research through technology-focused universities in California. Things to be tested are comparisons between different kinds of drones, drone potency, software capabilities when directly synced with drones, etc.
  • 13. Management, Shareholders and Directors Our management team would primarily consist of the Founder and Co-Founder. The founder of our company started racing at the age of 10 on the karting team his father owned.The founder of Motorhead Academy also won two national championships and finished 5th place in world karting finals in Italy. During his 13 years of experience karting, he established a network of potential clients for Motorhead Academy, thus facilitating the sales generation of starting up. In terms of the co founder, the co founder has 6+ years of experience in marketing for Homestead Speedway as well as an MBA in Business and Entrepreneurship. During her time in Homestead she networked with professional karting teams and gained insight on management and marketing mediums required to be successful in the karting industry. The founder would be primarily in charge of maintaining the integrity of the coaching experience and starting relationships with clients. The founder would also be in charge of general operations in the warehouse and on the track as well as recruiting clients with the Management,Shareholders and Directors CEO COO/CFO Tech Secondary Coach -Primarily involved in coaching (initially) -Operations -Client recruitment -Finances -Marketing -Seek sponsors -Settingup tents, software, drones and computers -Training clientele

The secondary coach would be hired in year 2~ in assisting with sessions once our clientele pool increases. Lastly, the other employee on board would be the technician in charge of setting up our drones, software and other technological team. The Founder would be in charge of annual and quarterly performance reviews of all coaches (as well as faculty/staff) and coaches/employee’s with the best performance reviews will be rewarded accordingly. The race results of coaches in particular will be noted periodically and summed at the end of the quarter for recognition. Risks and Assumptions Risks and StrategicAssumptions — Main assumption: That our coaching service  will improve drivers performance in amore efficient way than the traditional methods — — Risk: If customers don’t improve skills,drop times,and attain better results there will be no need for our service.     — — Assumption:Our clients will pay $500 per session — — Risk: if price is too low we will be losing profits if price is to high customer retention will be difficult   — — Assumption: Sales Driver àthe best way to reach our customers is through race events — — Risk: not reaching our potential market,competitors stealing market share by using other sales driver — — Assumption:  We will maintain competitive advantage through early recognition of innovative software that will be implemented in our coaching service.This software requires months of training.This puts us at atime advantage over our competitors that haven’t recognized the technology trend. — — Risk: Competitors start using similar technology that we use.
  • 15. Notes When it comes our assumption that states “our coaching service will improve drivers performance in a more efficient way than the traditional methods, we had proved it by actually having a test at the Sonoma Speedway. 9 out of the 11 drivers saw a drop in their time, imagine what we could do with multiple sessions. This shows our service does work. Another assumption was “our clients will pay the $500 per session. We tested this after our test at the Sonoma Speedway. We asked our clients and their parents if they would be willing to pay the $500 per session and 85% said yes. Also, one of our assumptions were that “the best way to reach our customers is through race events. How this was tested was we offered a free trial online and a free trial at a race event. Only 30% of online traffic considered a free trial compared to the 70% that considered it at the race event. Our final assumption was that “we will maintain competitive advantage through early recognition of innovative software that will be implemented in our coaching service. This software requires months of training. This puts us at a time advantage over our competitors that haven’t recognized the technology trend. The risk reduction for this is our coach-driver relationship; acquiring our clients while young works in our favor. Although technology is replicable, relationships are not.
  • 16. Primary Research: Test California Sonoma Speedway Rotax National Event Notes The way we tested our risk and assumptions is through primary research. This test was done previously by our CEO to test the satisfaction of the clients with our service, the price of our service, and the willingness to commit for another session. Even though this was a good test there where a couple of things that could be improved upon. First the test had a small sample size of only seven, second the test was made with long lasting clients the CEO had in his career as a personal coach and there was a chance they could be biased due to the relationship, and finally the CEO did this test in Miami Fl and our company is based in Sonoma California. Motor Head Academy decided to redo the test in a race event at Sonoma California, The Rotax Grand Nationals. The team went to Sonoma speedway and offered a free trial to 10 Primary Research: Test CaliforniaSonoma Speedway Rotax National Event Categor y Best lap Before Coaching (sec) Best lap after coaching Satisfied with service price Committed to another session Micro 58.73 -.32 Yes 400 yes Micro 58.51 +.05 no 500 no micro 59.10 -.43 Yes 600 yes micro 58.65 -.21 Yes 400 yes micro 58.88 -.37 Yes 500 yes micro 58.62 -.27 Yes 600 no micro 58.79 -.18 Yes 400 yes mico 58.91 -.32 Yes 500 yes Minimax 56.12 +.19 No 600 no Minimax 56.03 -.20 Yes 400 yes Minimax 56.24 -.16 Yes 500 yes

  • 18. Schedule Notes Year 1: This is the first year of operations. We will be breaking even within the first year of operation with just two training sessions a day, 5 days a week, at $500 a session. This will be a year heavily relied on for setup of our warehouse, infrastructure, databases, computers and other technology heavily used in our on-the-field operation. Year 2: This year will be the first year we hire another coach as an employee to start training our clients. Because of this, this marks the beginning of multiplied sales seeing that we have another coach to carry the weight of increased amounts of sessions requested. Schedule • Heavy advertisingand warehouse/ technology setup Year 1 • Start of new-hire coaches Year 2 • Expansion: buying 10 new drones and more equipment Year 3 • More coaches hired to tailor to new clients Year 4 • Continual growth Year 5
  • 19. Year 3: Year three is the most important year in terms of movements towards expansion. On this year, ten new drones will be leased to be able to sustain training 2,640 sessions annually via 5 coaches. This expansion in technology is necessary due to our increased in clients and sessions requested. Due to this increase in business, at this point our coaches will be spread out doing sessions not only at Sonoma Speedway but at neighboring speedways as well. Year 4: In year 4, more coaches will be hired depending on our consumers demands. Exit Value Notes Within 5 years at a interest rate of 20%, grandma’s investment will be paid back at $298,598.4. We used a publically traded automobile supplier company called Delphi to compute our Price/Earning ratio seeing that it was the closest relative company to ours that is publically traded, and we multiplied year 5’s net income with their price earning ratio of 16/8% to get our exit value. Exit Value / Grandma’s Investment — PV:120,000 — I/Y:20% — N:5 years — PMT:0 — CMPT FutureValue à 298,598.4 — Exit Value: 1,883,856 x 16.8%à 316,487.8
