  1. ....To raise money for a local charity, Brakes For Brett
    <http://www.brakesforbrett.org/> (B4B). This is the first of a series of
    events we'll be taking part in show kids the right place for kids to go fast
    and to raise money for the organization.



    Brett was killed by his best friend, Andy Short, in a car crash while they
    are hill jumping at over 122 MPH. Brett's father, Michael, took Andy under
    his wing, formed B4B. Andy has shared his story with a number of high
    schools and youth groups. Here is a link to the recent news story:

    Brett's cousin, Jonathan created a 1 hour short documentary "FlyingOverCuba"
    on the local impact Brett's death has had on street racing scene in Long
    Grove, IL. Cuba Road is where Brett's crash occurred and has claimed 646
    teens the same way. Link to a 5 minute trailer:

    We are out to set a positive example, gather pledges, and recruit mentors
    for younger guys who have a passion for going fast. Here is a link to our
    charity page about our efforts: http://www.showyourauto.com/charity.htm



    Brett's story is one we can all relate to, Andy's courage and Michael's
    character is something we can honor and take as an example. They deserve
    our support.



    Wish me luck!
