Tony Hunt Celebrity Race To Benefit The Make-A-Wish Foundation
ParkerStore Driver Kyle Larson Competes
Sacramento, CA – ParkerStore Outlaw Sprint Kart driver Kyle Larson recently
participated in the Tony Hunt Celebrity Race event to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation
at the RPM – Race Place Motorsports - indoor karting facility.
Hunt, a four time USAC Western
States Sprint Car champion, hosted the charity get together March 5th inside the ultra
modern racing venue. Thirty-two teams were in competition, each captained by a celebrity
driver. A few of the drivers on hand included former NEXTEL cup racer Jerry Nadeau, 3 time
USAC Silver Crown champion Jimmy Sills, 2005 USAC Western States Sprint Car champion Cody
Swanson, and Outlaw sprint car star Jason Meyers. Larson was a member of 600cc micro
sprint driver Nicole Miller’s team. Larson set the fastest time on two of the three
tracks and had the best combined time of the 128 drivers competing.
Once again the highlight of the fourth annual event was that everyone had fun, while
donating their time and cash to the children in need. The charity event raised a grand
total of $15,000 and 100% of the proceeds will benefit the local chapter of the
Make-A-Wish Foundation.
