We are excited to announce a thrilling event that is happening at Texas Motor Speedway. Mike Starr with Team Texas is hosting a Charity Day on Sunday, February 19th, 2012.  This is your chance to help support Fortress YDC while experiencing an unforgettable ride at "The Great American Speedway™"!

Team Texas will be offering their 4-lap Rides for a cost of $99.00 + tax ($107.17 -the usual price for the 4-Lap Ride is $125 plus tax) from 11am to 5pm, and will donate 50% of the cost ($49.50) to Fortress.  There is no age limit for the Riders, but weight will be restricted to between 80 and 300 pounds per Rider.  After being fitted for a helmet and a racing suit, you will be buckled into the passenger seat of a real NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Car. A professional driver will take you for a 4-lap ride that will reach speeds of up to 160 mph. The race cars will perform maneuvers like drafting, passing and side-by-side.

WoW! So who wants to take the Ride of Their Life and help raise money for Fortress at the same time? Simply call our office or reply to this email to let us know! 817.335.1007 .
