Help me fulfill a dream...GR Cup racing

So, this is it—the final week. By this Friday, August 21st, I have to make the commitment to compete in the GR Cup race at Barber Motorsports Park.

I’ve spent every day working to put this puzzle together and make this dream a reality. From getting the car, the required safety equipment, radio system and race license, to the final car preparation and testing, I’ve been knocking on doors, making calls, sending messages, and doing everything I can—all while working my full-time job and taking care of my responsibilities at home.
And honestly… I’m so close I can taste it.

This has become about so much more than just going racing. It’s about proving to myself that if you’re willing to work hard enough, keep pushing, and refuse to give up on a dream, you can get closer than you ever thought possible.

I want to sincerely thank everyone who has helped get me this far.
Chin Track Days — for offering racecar transportation and logistics support and helping make this opportunity possible.

AZP Installs — for offering discounted service to anyone who donates and puts “AZP Installs” in the donation note.

Gumz Custom Art — for donating a custom-sketch artwork giveaway for every $20 donation that includes “Gumz” in the donation note.

Chin Track Days drivers, make a donation and put “Chin” in your donation note and you'll receive a special gift!

These offers are still available, and every bit of support helps.
Only one promotional note/offer can be applied per donation.

And to the individuals who have already stepped up, I honestly don't have the words to adequately express what your support means to me. You didn't just contribute—you believed in me. And I will carry that with me when I roll onto that track.

Even with all of this incredible generosity, I’m still just a little bit short. And I have to give my final answer to the race organizer and the team this Friday.

At this point, one additional business partner or a few more donations could very realistically make the difference between watching this race from home and actually lining up on the grid at Barber Motorsports Park.

If you own a business—or know someone who does—I would love the opportunity to put together a partnership that makes sense for you. I’ll proudly represent your company at the track, on the car, across my social media, and throughout this entire journey. You wouldn't just be helping me go racing—you'd be getting your small business or brand get in front of a passionate motorsports audience while becoming part of a story I hope people will remember.

And if advertising isn't your thing, maybe you'd simply like to make a donation to help someone chase a dream that they've worked incredibly hard to reach.

Either way, I'd love to hear from you. Please message me, share this post, tag someone who might be interested, or simply help spread the word.
I’ve come this far. I’m not ready to let the dream stop one step from the starting line.

Thank you—from the bottom of my heart—to everyone who has supported me, encouraged me, shared my posts, made introductions, donated, or simply told me to keep going.

Let's see if we can fulfill this dream at Barber.
