We are the Fortunate Ones. Be a Hero to a Child at Sebring Raceway

Hello everyone,
We are only 1 week away from what is sure to be a fantastic event at Sebring Raceway with PBOC. This event is very special to me and for many others. Every year PBOC and Zoeller Ministries help sponsor terminally-ill children and their families to a weekend of racing at Sebring. Guys, I want to put this in perspective for those of you that have never attended this event. For many of these children, it is a life-long dream to be at a race track and have a chance to see these fantastic cars we drive, not to mention have the opportunity to actually ride inside a high-performance car around the race track. Several of these kids may not make it to next year’s event. Think about how lucky you and I are.

This is our chance to be heroes in the eyes of innocence. We have a beautiful chance to share our good fortune with a child that is less-fortunate, and who will look to you as a celebrity. Many of these families encounter a mountain of financial debt in medical bills, while trying to take care of their ill children.

Even if you can’t make it to the event, you can help sponsor an entire family for the weekend, for only $300. This includes hotel for two nights, t-shirts, and seven meals. They are expecting 60 families this year. Think about it; how much do we typically spend on a set of race tires?

If you can sponsor a family, I urge you to do so.
Please send checks ASAP to:
Zoeller Motorsports Ministries
Kids Racing for Life
P.O.Drawer 6885
Fort Myers, FL 33911-6885


If you CAN make the event, I promise you that you will not soon forget it. Two years ago I helped by putting helmets on the kids and buckling them inside the cars. The smiles I saw that day will live with me forever. For more information about the event and to see who else is going, click here http://www.trackweekend.com/calendar/11871275/

Share your good fortune with those less fortunate. Me and the entire TrackWeekend.com crew will be on hand at this event beginning on Thursday night, September 9. If you have any questions about the event or how to help, please contact me or one of our organizers.

Drive safely, and I hope to see many of you next weekend at Sebring!
