WC Vision has announced that the fines handed down for penalties assessed during the Long Beach Grand Prix Pirelli World Challenge event have been collected and donated to four charities/foundations.
An amount in excess of $40,000 has been distributed to the Road Racing Drivers Club Safe is Fast campaign, the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, the SCCA Foundation and Project Peanut Butter.
“As a collective group, drivers and teams included, we were disappointed by some of the on-track behavior exhibited at Long Beach,” said Scott Bove, president and CEO, WC Vision. “The silver lining though is that we get to move in a positive direction with monies being donated to four very worthy charities/foundations.”
“We at the Road Racing Drivers Club are honored to have been selected to be one of the beneficiaries of the penalties assessed at the Pirelli World Challenge race in Long Beach earlier this year. The funds we are receiving will allow the Safe is Fast driver development program to continue to help improve driver skills through its tutorials, which should benefit the sport,” said Bobby Rahal, President of the Road Racing Drivers Club.
“Project Peanut Butter is the charity chosen by StopTech’s VP Sales & Marketing Mark Cornwell to honor the memory of their daughter Madison,” said Greg Gill, General Manager/VP Marketing, WC Vision. “Mark and the team at StopTech have been great partners to the series and our thoughts and prayers go out to the Cornwell family.”
