Rip Michels, the Two-Time Reigning Super Late Model Champion, and
his Stock Building Supply/ Ladco Racing/ Victory Circle/ Chevrolet
racing team are proud to announce that they will be competing in
the Super Late Model division race this Saturday night (August
28th) at Irwindale Speedway for the John Wayne Cancer Institute.
The team will be giving away a hood from the racecar, which has the John
Wayne Cancer Institute’s logo on it. The hood also has signatures
of all the people who have donated to this great cause. Fans are
encouraged to get to the track early, as there will be a drawing
for one lucky fan to win a trip to one of the luxurious suites at
Irwindale Speedway for the night. Irwindale Speedway’s Super Late
Model Driver, Mr. Dan Moore, has donated the suite.
The drawing will take place during the autograph session, tentatively
starting at 5:30 pm. Those fans that make a donation will be
eligible for the drawing for both the hood and the use of the
suite.
“We are really pleased to be associated with this great function,” said
Rip. “To be able to give just a little to those people who have
been stricken down by this terrible disease is both and honor and
a privilege for me and my race team. We hope that all of our fans,
and those who are not, will give their support and donations to
this cause,” commented Rip.
“I, along with all of the associates from Stock Building Supply, are
pleased to be involved,” said Rick Smith, Manager for Motor Sports
Operations for Stock Building Supply. “Most of the guys on the
team are huge fans of John Wayne. He is an American Icon and hero.
For us to be involved is really special to all of us. We would
encourage everyone who can attend, and those who can’t, to give
what they can to the institute,” Said Rick
Rip will be donating a portion of his winnings to the Institute. Those
fans that will not be able to attend can make their donations to
the JWCI web site listed below.
