This has been a deeply difficult year for our racing family.

We have watched racers face serious injuries and difficult recoveries. We have grieved lives lost and held families in our hearts as they navigate days no one should have to face.

Through it all, you showed up.

You donated. You volunteered. You shared fundraisers and reached out with kindness. You helped Back on Track provide financial support to racers and families during some of the hardest moments of their lives.

We wish there had been less need for our help this year. We are profoundly grateful that, when the need was there, you were there, too.

As the MotoAmerica and American Flat Track seasons close, our hearts remain with those still healing and those learning to live with loss.

Thank you for caring for this racing family—and for helping us care for them, too. 💙

💙Bayne’s💗 memorial fundraiser closes September 24, and we want to bring our racing community together to provide as much support as possible for his family.

A gift in Bayne’s memory can help ease the financial burden his family faces as they grieve. If you’re able, please consider donating before the fundraiser ends. Sharing this message also helps us reach others who may want to give.

To everyone who has already donated or shared—thank you for honoring Bayne and showing the Nantz family they have a community beside them.

If you can't donate, please share and spread the word.

For the second year in a row, UnSettled Racing presented Back on Track with a $10,000 donation at the Springfield Mile! 🏁❤️

Our heartfelt thanks to UnSettled Racing and the Settle and Hart families for their continued generosity and commitment to helping injured racers and their families. During an especially difficult racing season, this support helps ease financial burdens so families can focus on recovery.

This is the racing community taking care of its own 🤝—and we are grateful. Thank you for standing with Back on Track and the families we serve.

💙💗Bayne Nantz Fund 💙💗

Some racers leave their mark on the track. Others leave it everywhere they go.

Bayne “The Train” Nantz was known for his determination on the racetrack—but also for his kindness, humility, generosity, and the joy he brought to those around him. Just days before the accident, Bayne was living his dream at the legendary Peoria TT, qualifying near the front and taking the starting line surrounded by family, teammates, competitors, and fans proudly wearing his name.

Even in passing, Bayne continued to give through organ donation—a final act that perfectly reflected the way he lived.

The Bayne Nantz Memorial Fund was created to honor his remarkable life, stand alongside the Nantz family, and carry his generous spirit forward by helping Back on Track support motorcycle racers and their families when tragedy or serious injury changes everything.

Every donation—regardless of the amount—is a meaningful way to remember Bayne, support the people he loved, and ensure his impact continues far beyond the racetrack.

The fund will remain open through September 24, 2026.

Donate in Bayne’s memory:

Together we can make a difference!
