Richmond Raceway has announced an expanded 2020 Track Laps for Charity schedule, featuring four events that will offer race fans the opportunity to drive their personal vehicles around the track for a donation of $20. The donation will benefit Richmond Raceway Cares and a different charitable organization in the greater Richmond region for each Track Laps for Charity.
For 2020, Richmond has partnered with the Bair Foundation, Blessings in a Backpack, Sickle Cell Research at VCU Health System, and the Markel Corporation for quarterly Track Laps for Charity events. The events will be held March 22 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. (Bair Foundation); May 30 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. (Blessings in a Backpack); Aug. 15 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. (Sickle Cell Research at VCU Health System); and Nov. 7 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. (Markel Corporation).
Fans can sign up in advance by visiting richmondraceway.com/tracklaps or at the track on the day of a Track Laps for Charity event. Fans are also invited to take a tour of the FanGrounds, turn a few laps in the Richmond Raceway Simulator, play games and more in the modernized infield.
To participate, drivers must be 18 years of age or older with a valid state-issued driver’s license. Maximum speed is 55 miles per hour with drivers behind the Official Toyota Camry Pace Car. Drivers must stay up to speed and refrain from lagging behind in order to speed up. Seatbelts must be worn at all times. Motorcycles are permitted.
Track Laps for Charity may be postponed or canceled due to inclement weather or safety conditions. If a cancellation is necessary, Richmond will make its best effort to contact guests in advance of their visit.
