Laps for Charity I
Saturday, May 8, 2010
You're the driver when Texas Motor Speedway opens the Speedway to the public for the first time this year. Experience the thrill of driving your car around the 1.5-mile super speedway all to benefit the Texas Chapter of Speedway Children's Charities.

Polish up your special vehicle and come on out to "The Great American Speedway!®" on Saturday, May 8, 2010 for Laps for Charity I. Take three laps on the 1.5 mile Super Speedway behind a pace vehicle for just a $30 donation and have your picture taken in Victory Lane for an additional $10. Once again our fan favorite VIP Laps Experience will be offered for $250. Laps will be conducted for Car Clubs (by reservation) from 5-7 p.m. and for the General Public from 7-10 p.m. No reservation is needed for the General public time.

VIP Laps Experience for $250 donation per car Includes:
(1) 5 Laps Session during a special reserved time slot
(1) Three-Course Dinner for two at the Starlight Dinning Room in The Speedway Club (May 8, 2010)
(1) Photo in Victory Lane with your Car
(2) Laps for Charity event T-shirt

For more information please contact the Speedway Children's Charities office at (817) 215-8421.

Ive been to this three times and its a blast. Theres a 100mph "speed limit" but what weve always done is hang back a bit since there is no passing until the pace truck was pushing us around the track then catch up to the rest of the group. It all goes to a good cause and its a good time. I plan on going if anyone else wants to go we may be able to get a group discount on hotel rooms. I plan on driving down on the evening of the 7th after i get off work and coming back sometime sunday evening (the 9th). The dfw viper club, various corvette clubs, and a group of others usually attend this event.
