Our Story
wHO ARE THE “jer”?
A small but international group of highly progressive individuals with petrol for blood. On and off the race track, their approach to everything is simple. 100% commitment!
The stakes and the standards of the JER are high and as a result, it consists of just a handful of members and to this day, their identities remain largely a mystery.
In addition to the regular board meetings where some of the worlds most exotic machines are voted in or out of the JER, the members meet once a year for the RP. A tour of the best roads in the world in some of the most hardcore machinery ever created to see if they are “JER-worthy”. All are measured. Many are found wanting.
The first RP was in 2009 and in 2013 the first T-Shirts were made to commemorate the event and, unknowingly, a brand was born. Year after year the a new design was created and in 2021 it was decided to launch the brand and go global. Now WAFA racing boasts a large range of collectables all designed to express the spirit of the JER.
WAFA is much more than a brand. It’s a binding contract with your piers but more importantly, with yourself, to ensure the maximisation of every scenario you find or indeed, place yourself in. Because WAFA is not just a brand:
“WAFA is a way of life.”
Are you at the race track? In a car or even a motorbike. It makes no difference. As long as you are giving it 100%.
Indeed, WAFA is not limited to motorsport. The spirit of the JER can be found across many sporting activities.
So if you are in the backcountry, chest deep in powder or riding a 30m wave in Nazare or half way up the north face of the Eiger, we want to see it too.
No matter where you are, if you are doing something WAFA make sure you are wearing WAFA.
