Las Vegas Chapter of Speedway Children’s Charities will present Laps for Charity on Sunday Jan. 29

The Las Vegas Chapter of Speedway Children’s Charities will present the second annual Laps for Charity at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday, Jan. 29 from 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

NASCAR fans and auto enthusiasts alike will have the unique opportunity to drive their personal car around LVMS’ 1.5-mile superspeedway at speeds up to 75 mph (behind a pace car), all in the name of charity.

Laps for Charity is open to all licensed drivers 18 years of age and older and the entry fee only is $30 per vehicle for three laps. Drivers may have their picture taken in LVMS’ victory lane for an additional donation of only $10. All occupants of the car must be at least 6 years of age or older. The vehicle must be street legal and have a current inspection sticker. Car clubs are welcome to participate.

All proceeds from Laps for Charity will benefit the Las Vegas Chapter of Speedway Children’s Charities. A total of 750 cars were entered in the inaugural event in 2011 and more than $25,000 was raised for local children’s causes.

Participants may register online at www.scclasvegas.org. For more information, please call Paulette Anderson at (702) 632-8242 or e-mail SCC LV at [email protected].
