Joe Halsey Put the Pedal to the Metal to Help Speed the Cure!
CCFA race enthusiast, Joe Halsey, helped raise awareness and funds to find a cure for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis at the CCFA Power Speedway event that took place on October 3, 2004 at Dover International Speedway in Dover Delaware. The event took in over $60,000 for the cause! The 150,000 seat Dover International Speedway hosted this private CCFA party exclusively for a limited number of selected drivers and riders. Daredevil Joe Halsey experienced the thrill of being a NASCAR driver for a day and raced what is known as the "fastest mile" in America. Other participants also rode with professional drivers to feel the speed on the 24 degree banking. “I had a blast and can't wait to start raising money to do it again," Joe said. Contact the CCFA office to make sure you are on the mailing list for next year’s Power Speedway event.
