So far in 2010, members of my crew and I have volunteered 40 hours to repair the car and trailer and perform any required maintenance. We have spent an additional 30 hours to attend events on our time without pay or compensation. In addition we have driven 760 miles to attend the various events. Here is what we have done each month with the program so far in 2010: January This month was spent conducting maintenance on the racecar as well making a few changes such as adding new gauges, adjusting the suspension and other tweaks to make the car more consistent. On 1/31, we attended the Countlyline Dragway Beat the Heat event. There we raced against kids and local racers on their 1/8th mile drag strip. While there we had the opportunity to speak with more than 100 kids and young adults about the dangers of street racing. March- We were unable to attend any events due to my busy work schedule and maintenance on the racecar. April- On 4/11, we attended the Countlyline Dragway Beat the Heat event. There we raced against kids and local racers on their 1/8th mile drag strip. While there we had the opportunity to speak with more than 100 kids and young adults about the dangers of street racing. We also attended the weekly Tower Shoppes Classic car show and displayed the racecar for a few hours. We spoke with over 300 kids and young adults not to mention all of the adults who stopped by to take a look at the car.
