Hurricane Relief at Carolina Nationals

HR9121 · 10-02-2018, 07:41 PM

Hello everyone, next week is the Carolina Nationals in Charlotte and I thought this would be a good time to call on all of my fellow racers. As many of you know my hometown of New Bern was hit very hard as well as the surrounding areas. There has been tremendous support and alot has been done over the last couple weeks but there are still lots of people who need help!
I will be accepting donations at Charlotte to bring home and distributed by some of the local churches. If you are able to contribute it would be very much appreciated. There are lots of needs from cleaning supplies to old clothes, any thing will help, some of these folks have lost everything and no contribution is too small. I know my fellow racers are some of the most giving and helpful people in the world and nothing would make me more proud than to have to rent a Uhaul to get it all back to New Bern! If you're not coming to Charlotte you can still help by visiting one of the many organizations' websites that are helping during this crisis and donate money. One of those is CAREolinas.com. I spoke with Rich today and the track has partnered with them and stickers will be available to everyone to help bring awareness to the need.
Thank you for all for your support and we will see you next weekend "Live" from Zmax!

We will have some stufff in our rig to help out, but that means if we meet in the eliminator you have to give me the round like I gave you that one at Cecil so your daughter would still like us, lol

Thank you Brett Candies, I emailed you back! I know you probably didn't want me to say anything but thank you for the donation.

Hi everyone, just wanted to remind you don't forget to pack your donations for the trip to Charlotte. There are alot of people around that desperately need your help and it will be much appreciated. As I said before some of the things needed but not limited to are clothes, shoes, cleaning supplies, personal hygiene products and so on. Nothing will be turned down and I will make sure this stuff gets put to good use. If you're not coming to Charlotte I will also be at Rockingham the following week so you can catch me there. Also don't forget to pick up your CAREolinas stickers at the tech trailer. Thank you all again and we'll see you in a couple days!

Just wanted to say thank you again to all those who brought us stuff to Zmax! There was alot of stuff donated and we were close to running out of room but we got it all stuffed in and my wife Crystal has been working on getting it to the people who need it most this week.
We also collected $430 in cash and gift cards which we have decided to match. This gives us $860 for some people that have some specific needs. I wanted to give those who donated a little shout out here also but there were a few that dropped off some items when I wasn't around so I'm sorry if I omit you here.

Thank you all again so much and anyone else that dropped stuff off when I wasn't around!
