Take a lap around the track with your favorite NASCAR Sprint Cup driver and help support children's organizations across the country through Speedway Children's Charities "Ride of A Lifetime". Lucky race fans will have the chance to ride in the pre-race parade lap with their driver at Speedway Motorsports Inc., race tracks prior to NASCAR Sprint Cup races throughout the 2010 season. Speedway Children's Charities will auction pre-race parade lap rides with select Sprint Cup drivers through online and live auctions for twelve races during the 2010 racing season.

As 2009 has come to an end, I find myself reflecting on all that was accomplished the past year. I was initially hired by Jerry Gappens to intern at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in the Sales and Marketing department.
