🏁 16TH ANNUAL KART RACING FOR LIFE CANCER BENEFIT KNOW BEFORE YOU GO! 🏁
Some races are about trophies, money, and bragging rights. This one is about something much bigger.
For 16 years, our racing family has come together for a cause that touches nearly every one of us. We race to celebrate the survivors, honor those still fighting, and remember the loved ones we’ve lost.
What makes this event special isn’t the number of karts in the pits or the money on the line. It’s the people who show up year after year to make a difference.
We can’t thank our racing family enough for the continued support of this event. We look forward to seeing everyone Saturday, October 24th, at Ashway Speedway!
