About Us

Who is R.I.C.?

Racers in Christ (R.I.C.) began in 1998 in the heart of Carl Dillow II. Carl saw a great need at local race tracks to share the love of God with fellow drivers and fans. R.I.C.'s beginnings included prayer and a short devotional before the race. and a clown ministry to fans during intermission with "RIC" the clown.

Today, R.I.C. outreach has expanded to include "Jenzo and Sonflower" the clowns, "Holley the Dog", and other exciting characters. RIC seeks to reach out to the community through children’s programs, drama, music and family fun to share the love of God. Carl and his brothers, Jesse and Tony Dillow, along with others, work together to reach out to other race teams , people at the race tracks, and those in the community.

Some of R.I.C.’s outreaches include: church services, church camps, child adoption awareness, vacation bible schools, parades and grand openings for local businesses. They are open to new ideas to reach out into the community and share the gospel of Jesus.
