ok, here is the deal..........
i have been wanting to do this for a couple of years now. finally got it in the works.
for this years baja 1000 we will be doing a fundraiser for the ASA. no, not the american sand association. it is the Autism Society of America. this fundraiser will be set as a pledge drive from people and companies. i was waiting to have my meeting with the ASA to make this public, but it is all a go now. we have set a date of 6 months to have our truck built and take it to the shows that are before the baja 1000. lots of long nights and weekends ahead!! we hope to get attention and more pledges and donations. our website is under construction at the moment, but please visit from time to time to check either progress or see who has jumped aboard to help our cause.
Why the ASA??? many of you dont know, but i have a 12 year old autistic son who is the BIGGEST off road race fan in the world. he loves going to all the races with me and helping all he can. since my employment at Jimco, he has been there at all pit meetings, pre-running, chasing, and helping pit the #20 trophy truck. With Jimco supporting us, i know this will be a huge success. pass the word around and do what you can for a fellow class 3 racer. we will be doing local TV news, radio and we are networking to get some off-road magazines to do a spread on our car and cause. bring some attention to the class as well. if you know anyone who can help, please let me know. we want all the exposure we can get.
and on a last note, i need to thank the people and business's that are helping to make this happen.........
