Here is the first posting to let everyone know what is happening at the Speedway Regional in Charlotte, NC - April 26 - 28, 2007.
1. The Carolinas Chapter Board has decided to donate the majority of the proceeds from this event to five charities. We hope to give away so much money that NCRS can not match our donation because it will be too large.
2. Geoff Bodine has agreed to drive at speed five series of laps in a car donated by the Richard Petty Driving Experience. How many times in your life can you say you rode in a NASCAR car driven by a NASCAR winning driver?? And by the way all money is being donated to Victory Junction Gang so it will be tax deductable as a donation!! Bidding will be posted on the chapter website soon. http://www.ncrscarolinaschapter.org
3. We have between 20 - 40 items of NASCAR and Corvette heritage that will be auctioned off in a silent or open auction during the event. Again, all proceed going to charity.
4. Pie in the sky stuff 1. A personal appearance by Richard Petty and or Junior Johnson. Also, with some luck, Jim Perkins will be around to answer questions and be our VIP at the banquet. 2. Dale Earnhardt's Corvette to be displayed?? 3. Rick Hendrick's GTP Corvette on display??
5. The Richard Petty Driving Experience has offered a nice discount to any NCRS menber with a registration name badge!!
6. DEI (Dale Earnhardt Inc.) dinner and tour - 70 plus spots sold on opening day!! This was a big hit last time so sign up early!!
In case you missed the last one in 2004, we may not be the biggest but the atmosphere with the cars on the track at 160+ mph 100 yards away is second to none.
