Smile Hi from Chris Walker (LIVE TO RACE)

I have started to organise track days for kids with life threatening diseases. We have had 2 events so far and the children loved being taken around the track in our GT40,s. The next event is 26 Jan 2008.

have a look at YouTube - Live to Race to see the video.

Regards
Chris

Re: Hi from Chris Walker (LIVE TO RACE)

Chris,

Good for you and your desire to help kids with special needs in life.

I think your idea is great and I am sure it will only take a short period of time before it gets the coverage in newspapers and other media groups to recognise the wonderful thing you are organizing.

If I had a GT40, I would be in line to help out too.

Good luck with your efforts!!!!

Re: Hi from Chris Walker (LIVE TO RACE)

Chris,
Great cause and a wonderful way to give back. I have been doing the same kind of thing through auctions for various charitable organizations here in the states. It usually goes over very well and raises a good amount of money. You have inspired me with your post though. I will contact Make-a-wish and offer up a ride for any of thier teenagers whom might like to experience a ride in a race car.

Good luck to you. I am sure you will have as big a smile as the kids.

Make A Wish Foundation operates in the UK too. The kids and families love it.

Re: Hi from Chris Walker (LIVE TO RACE)

U are a great Chris.

In monza they make a similar event named "sei ruote di speranza".
many owners of exotics offer a ride in monza track with those guys...the emotions and the smiles u have back from theme are priceless.
