The RC Car Executive Committee offers high school student volunteers a one-of-a-kind, hands on leadership development experience. Since 2016, teen volunteers have taken full ownership of the annual RC Custom Car Open: selecting themes, securing sponsors, designing and fabricating racetracks and awards, leading workshops and managing race day operations.

Throughout the eight-month program, volunteers gain real-world skills in project management, teamwork, fabrication, 3D design, public speaking and time management—all while growing into adaptable leaders. The RC Car Executive Committee gives volunteers the keys to accelerate their skills, build confidence and shift into high gear for success in college, careers and beyond.

"I entered high school knowing absolutely nothing; I had no idea who I was or who I wanted to become in the near future. In my second year of high school, a friend introduced me to the Suncoast Science Center, urging me to partake in the RC Car Executive Committee. That was a huge leap outside of my comfort zone, but I gave it a try, stuck with the group, learned several machines, and gained so many new skills along the way. Honestly, I am so thankful that I never gave up. The Lab has gifted me so much in my short time being there: opportunities, experiences, friends – a second family… a home away from home." - Diego Morales, RC Car alum
