ALERT! ALERT! HOMESTEAD DATE CHANGE SEE BELOW

Give Back At The Track NASCAR Charity Fundraiser!
On Sunday, June 6th, as part of the Give Back at the Track charity fundraiser, a group of Fort Lauderdale AACA members and friends took 13 cars to the Homestead-Miami Speedway and did 13 laps on the 1 1/2 mile oval. Some at more than 120 mph. You can read about it in the May/June issue of the Steering Wheel or click on this link FtLauderdaleAACA Instagram video to watch an 18 minute movie of the experience. Afterwards we went to lunch together to cap off what all agreed was one of the best experiences in years.
Well, we arranged to do it again and you’re invited. This time it’s a package deal.
Here’s what you get, $70.00 includes:

Event is now Sunday, October 10th ; (the original date was December 26th. Due to many requests the date was changed.)
15 minutes of track time on October 17th.
1 seat for the NASCAR race on February 27th.
Another $40 gets another ticket for the race for a guest.
Entry of your classic car into the car show on February 27th.

THE 1ST 25 PEOPLE TO REGISTER WILL GET AN ADDITIONAL 15 MINUTES OF TRACK TIME FREE!
You do not have to have a high performance car. Our group included daily drivers and pickup trucks.
To be one of the 25 for additional track time you must sign up NOW. If you sign up later and are not one of the lucky 25, you will get everything in the package except the the additional track time.
Proceeds from Give Back at the Track benefit DRIVING FOR A CAUSE – A DONOR ADVISED FUND OF THE NASCAR FOUNDATION.
To purchase tickets and sign up, call Felicia Vega at 305-230-5211 and tell her you’re with the Fort Lauderdale AACA. You do not have to have a high performance car. Our group included daily drivers and pickup trucks.
Members that have already purchased a package for Devember 26 will be able to use it for the October 10th event. If you have not yet purchased, you can do so here: https://fevo.me/hms-aaca
Must pre-register by 9/27 – NO REGISTRATION OR PAYMENT AT THE TRACK. Our time slot is from 10:45 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
ATTENTION! James Wright, Club Event Chairman says “If you are one of us that is interested in driving on the track at Homestead you need to contact me by September 10th whether you signed up or not. I was notified today that the newly announced date for the track day of October 3rd is INCORRECT. The correct date is October 17th. We are left with a dilemma. October 17th is in conflict with 2 other events that I am already committed to. I cannot go to Homestead on that date. That means that if some of us go on October 17th and others on another date we will not go as a group. We will be on the track with other strangers. Homestead is looking for another date for us to go as a group. I need to speak to each of you individually and get you preference. Call me at your convenience at 954 232-3636. Leave a message if I don’t answer and I’ll call you back.”
