Drag Racers Support the Troops

Warren Johnson, Jim Yates, Jason Line and Cory McClenathan have been over in Kuwait this week before heading to Germany for a stop at the Kaiserslautern Military Community. This is the fourth year for this important trip, which is sponsored by the USO and supported by GM Racing.

Fred Simmonds, who recently retired as head honcho at GM Racing, once again accompanied the racers and has played an instrumental part in this annual trip since its first year (2005). Also, GM Racing and members of their race teams assembled 1,500 gift bags to be given out during the tour.

It's great to see Fred and these highly successful racers take time from their busy schedules, not to mention their families, to represent all of us in showing support for the troops at Thanksgiving.

Thanks to Fred and the racers involved, and a special thanks, of course, to the troops!!
