After moving to Southern California, by 1980 JPL, Beach Cities, Beautiful Blondes and Westwood were his racing clubs. He raced in the Grand Mariner and Jeep programs. Scott’s passion for racing extended from skis to inline skates. Often, very often he is the fastest man on the hill and the pavement.

But Scott’s real passion for racing is in his joy of sharing. He has a higher standard and works to support other people’s ability to improve. Scott has set up winter training programs at Mt. Waterman, Snow Forest and Mt. Baldy as well as Mammoth.. His summer training program has been orange cones on various inline skating courses at UCLA, Sunland and/or the foothills. The training courses were set for all levels of ability and open to anyone with a desire to learn. Currently he coordinates the Mammoth Clinics on Fridays of race weekends and alternate weekends when possible.

Scott encourages all skiers/boarders to try racing and share his passion of the sport.

Scott Peer has been a pacesetter since he was able to quality- which means he has been setting the high standards for FWRA racing for over 25 years. He has been a FWRA Championship competitor at annual finals and several years served as FWRA Championship Chairman. Scott’s work with the Junior racers and adult/senior non-racers to encourage them to race is another notch on his belt of accomplishments.

His gracious personality and upbeat spirit make him an easy person to work with as well as his knowledge helps in resolving problems. For the last 10 years, he has been active in Rokka Race League serving as an officer, and is presently Rokka Vice President. He has been not only active with Junior Racers, Rokka Website, pacesetters, fund raising, but also in the day to day hard work of maintaining the racing programs as a volunteer.

His spirit, personality and determination have certainly been a golden key in keeping the race programs and racing spirit alive for all clubs in Southern California.
