Drive Toward a Cure Day

NCM Motorsports Park

April 3, 2020

April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month

The month of April is Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Month, and we’re seeking friends nationwide to help us spread awareness and raise much needed funds to Drive Toward a Cure for Parkinson’s Disease. Funds raised support PD research and patient care.

 

A Day of Unlimited Touring Lapping

Our track season starts on Friday, April 3, 2020 with NCM Motorsports Park’s “Drive Toward a Cure Day”!

All marques are welcome, convertibles are welcome, and there is no helmet requirement. Participants drive their own car in a lead-follow format for over 4 laps at a time on the 3.2-mile road course above highway speeds. The pace of lead cars will be matched to the cars and drivers in the group to ensure that the driving is spirited and the day is exciting while maintaining a safe environment that allows for passengers! We accommodate a group maximum of 5 cars per touring group.

Reservations are highly recommended. Very limited walk-in spaces will be available.

The cost is $125 per entry, which includes:

  • A $50 tax-deductible* donation supporting Parkinson’s Disease research and patient care.
  • Unlimited lapping. Passengers are welcome.
  • Drive Toward a Cure pin and window sticker.
