NHRA Racers and Fans come together to help a friend in need in Vegas

DON SCHUMACHER RACING
2008 NHRA POWERade DRAG RACING SERIES

April 7, 2008

Hello racers and fans:

The Don Schumacher and John Force racing teams battle tooth and nail on the race track every week, but these two teams will come together at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, on Friday, April 11, at 7:00 p.m., for a mutual friend, Eric Greendale.

Eric fought inoperable cancer a year ago and was thought to have achieved a miraculous recovery by the fall. We celebrated his life at an after-hours event at the Finals in Pomona, only to learn that his cancer had returned a month later with vengeance.

Eric has sacrificed his home and his career to fight his cancer and has just begun clinical trials with an energized fight to beat this thing. He has a strong bond with friends throughout NHRA teams, including DSR
and JFR, and a long-standing friendship with Mike "Zippy" Neff.

Join us to raise money for Eric's fight for life on Friday, April 11, at 7:00 p.m. at Don Schumacher's Mopar Hospitality area in the Pro Pits at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Gary Scelzi, Ron Capps, Jack Beckman, Tony Schumacher, Jerry Toliver, Cory McClenathan, John Force, Robert Hight, Ashley Force, Mike Neff and Kenny Youngblood will be on hand to participate in the auction and sign
autographs.

Old Spice, Mike Neff and Tony Stewart memorabilia will be auctioned off, along with a Ron Capps NAPA AUTO PARTS Racing helmet, Oakley merchandise, Kevin Harvick memorabilia, a Joe Gibbs/MacDonald NHRA Helmet, original artwork by Kenny Youngblood, a Ron Capps "Prelude to the Dream" Diecast, Jack Beckman's car parts, along with many, many other racing items.

There will also be a custom-designed John Force Racing tool box that will be raffled off with all proceeds going to Eric's medical costs.

Help us help our friend!

Thank you,
Don Schumacher Racing
