GTP Charity Event at the track
 
The Good Times Project started as part of the American Cancer Society where they put together camps for kids that are fighting this terrible disease. They created a place where these kids get to have fun and feel normal as they fight. In 2014 the American Cancer Society pulled funding from all camps across the USA leaving our local camp unfunded. Turn2 stepped in and put together a track day where all of the track fees goes to this incredible camp. As drivers of this event, we also get to give rides to these kids. At first, it felt like we were just giving a good time to these kids, but after getting to know these brave kids and having several pass, I realized that we are giving these kids an experience of a lifetime.

For more information, you can get a hold of me, or google The Good Times Project and look under the tab Drive A Thon.

Registration for this track event will be found at www.motorsportreg.com

Be sure to bring a friend!

That is interesting. I am putting on this event and we will be there for the next couple of days. You certainly are welcome to come out and enjoy the festivities and change the life of a kid!

Update for the Good Times Project charity. Turn2 and the incredible drivers raised just under $40,000 for this camp for kids that have cancer. A special thank you to our Corvette friends that came out and participated! This event changes the lives of the kids, but it pales in comparison to the lives changed by the drivers.
