Tonight, we are reaching out to our racing family...love each other or hate each other, when one of us are in need we ALL step up!! A member of our family is in a need none of us ever want to be in.
Earlier this week Josh and Nicole Williams' son Maxton was diagnosed with DIPG, a fast growing, aggressive brain tumor that develops in the brain stem. The brain stem is what controls ALL of our motor functions, as well as life functions such as swallowing and breathing.
We can't imagine the fear, angst and heartbreak they are feeling waiting for the pathology results and prognosis. Being that this type of tumor is inoperable there is a chance Max will qualify for clinical trials. This will mean traveling and extensive time off for Nicole and Josh. And NO ins, no matter how good, will cover the expenses.
We've attached a link for the GoFundMe but if you don't like that option we will have a box at the Banquet for gift cards, cards, letters or anything else you may care to give.

On 1/14/2025, Maxton was diagnosed with DIPG—a tumor that develops in the brain stem, t… Darlene Guile needs your support for Maxton's Battle with DIPG

Hey Everyone,
We're currently working on the slide show and program for the banquet.
If you have any favorite pictures..... your car, someone else's car, yourself, your crew, on track, in the pits, staging lanes or return road, please either share them in the comments or email to [email protected].
It's important to us that we recognize everyone that supported us.
While working a race, we miss so much of what makes racing what we love! But each of you see it from a different perspective.
We look forward to seeing the series though other people's eyes.
P.S. if there's a story to go with the pic.....all the better😃
We'll start.......

Happy New Year to all our racing Family!!

28/12/2024

For 8 yrs we've been working to get to where we can GUARANTEE payouts in all classes.
This is the year!!
We are still locking down more sponsorship before we post numbers but they will be coming soon.

For 2025 there will be a $100 membership fee that will go 100% to our points championship funds. FOR EXAMPLE, at one of our races last year we had 27 cars enter 5.50. That will be $2700 going directly to the racers in 5.50.
