I am going to discuss with Shannon and Jay the possibility of entertaining visually impaired people from the Lighthouse for the Blind to come to our last event at MSR Houston. How cool would it be to entertain these guests with the sound, smell and touch of racing??? Call it "The Sences of Racing". I am going to try and get the support of my Lions Club to provide lunch and escorts. I can load 3 at a time in the Neon for rides to give them the feel of the "Gs" pulled through the corners. If I can get the lighthouse type brail lettering on my car decals I am going to replace any that I have duplicates of with brail stickers. News programs love stories like this so maybe we can get some coverage.

I'd also like to see if we could set up some kind of mentoring program for at-risk teens, maybe. Bring 'em out to the track, show 'em what hard work can accomplish, and let 'em help out in the pits maybe. (Nothing heavy-duty, but let 'em get their hands dirty and feel like they're part of the team.)
