What is Break the Chain?

Break the Chain is a movement of change. We are a Social Awareness Racing team, apparel line and motivational speakers bringing awareness to social issues such as addiction, domestic violence, bullying, suicide, racism and abuse (to name a few).  We want everyone to know that those who have abused or have been abused are MORE than the abuse and addiction.  There is "Hope". 

We use racing, apparel and speaking to reach people with our message that you are more than the violence, abuse and addictions you have suffered.  We speak in schools,

 we race at many different tracks,  we attend parades and car shows, and we wear our voice. 


Break the Chain is here to shine a light on violence, abuse and addiction, and show the world that it is not our definition, and that together we can Break the Chain of what holds us back from becoming who we really are.

I have a challenge for you.  What is your definition?  How do you see yourself?  Does your abuse, or addiction control you even if it is something that happened long ago?  Does it still define you?  Have you been able to Break the Chain? Join us. Share your story.

Not everyone can race for us..., not everyone can speak out for us, but everyone can make a difference by simply getting dressed. 

Together, we will Break the Chain.

Break The Chain

Break the Chain Apparel makes speaking out against social issues as simple as racing or getting dressed .  With our awareness apparel, and break the chain racing team we spread the message that violence and addiction are not the norm.  Whether it is our anti bullying t-shirts, or any of our abuse awareness apparel, Break the Chain Monster truck,  S10 drag truck, V-8 Hot saw, enduro motocross bike, Mazda Miata, or any of our break the chain racing team, we want to help stop domestic violence, addiction and abuse by speaking out against the unspeakable by simply getting dressed.


When you purchase our clothing for a cause, you may inspire others to take the first step and ask for help.  By donating a portion of our sales to Project Change Reaction a nonprofit that goes directly into the schools to teach our youth about social issues so that they can break the chain of what for some has been a generational curse.   We as a society have a past that is filled with domestic violence, addiction, bullying and other types of abuse, but we can stand united whether it is with Break the Chain Racing team or Break the Chain’s awareness apparel and speak out without saying a word.  You do not have to be a victim to understand the importance of our awareness apparel.  You can show support by simply getting dressed.   Together we can become one voice, and send a strong message that we will, break the Chain of violence and addiction.  It’s as easy as wearing Break the Chain clothing with a voice, clothing for a cause to help stop domestic violence and other social issues.   Choose your voice, and join us as we reach out, to speak out by racing and simply getting dressed.

Break the Chain Monster Truck

Another season of monster truck racing comes to an end for Break the Chain.  What a great time we had at the Sublimity Harvest Festival!  Spectacular driving by "thing one" Aaron Basl this year!  I swear that truck had wings as he expertly drove her up and over buses, cars and vans effortlessly!  He did end up flipping her over on Saturday night, which brought the crowd to their feet and earned us a perfect score!  Me on the other hand, screamed so loud that I lost my voice for a few days. (I think my husband was happy about that). Sunday Aaron brought home the win for the Break the Chain team!  Way to go Thing One!

With the partnership between Break the Chain and BST Kustoms these young people will have an awesome opportunity to not only learn a trade, but also a lesson in life.
