LET'S GET Cal R/C Raceway Fixed Up!!!
Man, I love the "character" of the CAL RACEWAY, and yeah it would be nice if it had a good smooth fast surface...but who has the $$$ to FUND that kind of project?
Well, let's find out!! I want to help CHARLIE and the track out - and I will be donating to THIS FUND I set up with "GOFUNDME" - It's an ALL or NOTHING Donations - if the $$ Goal is NOT met w/in 30 days - it costs you NOTHING (except the chance to help support the repair to a great So Cal R/C Track!) http://www.gofundme.com/bu0168 |
MY Money is where MY Mouth Is
Just a FYI - not only did I Create this GO FUND ME deal for Cal Raceway, but I also put up the FIRST Donation to help get this started.
It would be GREAT if the whole surface at CAL could be leveled and had a new layer of asphalt on it - When Camarillo did that - MAN did that track get awesome... But, let's at least help get the RAMP/JUMP out of the track if that's what it will take to get more racers at this track. |
WOW it was awesome to see this $925 raised by 13 people in 2 days.
TEAM ASSOCIATED is so awesome they've done a $500.00 donation to help fix the track - YOU GUYS ROCK!! THANK YOU to those who have signed up so far to support this project Donald Natale - $25.00 Jack DeAnda - $25.00 Mike Rydwell - $100.00 Team Associated - $500.00 Steve Lindmark - $25.00 Jon McLean - $25.00 Rick Hohwart - $25.00 Russ Glass - $75.00 Brian Calapini - $25.00 Steven Jacquez - $25.00 Jose Vega - $25.00 John Tsai - $25.00 Joe Myers - $25.00 Like - Share - Spread The Word - Tell a Friend http://www.gofundme.com/bu0168 I verified w/ "We Pay" who handles the funds for "Go Fund Me" that I'll be able to have the $$$ paid DIRECTLY to Charlie at the conclusion of the 30 days if we meet our goal. That should save some time in processing things and getting the work done and paid for! |

You guys in the RC Community ROCK!
Dan made a direct donation to Charlie - so this won't help the "GO FUND ME" total, but it WILL help the track repair itself - Thanks Dan.
This is what we have so far (as of 2:00 am on FRIDAY July 25th) $2,010 pledged of $4,275 goal

Hi Joe,
I did not want to go through credit card donation but I will donate $100 towards Cal raceway track repair. I will send cash to Charlie when he needs it. I already spoke to him about this so add me to the list. Dan Apodaca |
very cool dan

You guys in the RC Community ROCK!
NOTE: While a $25.00 is the lowest listed contribution - there is NO Minimum $$$ (nor a Maximum) $5.00, $10.00 all the donations are going to a good cause and a great track - we are very close to reaching the goal thanks to some awesome support... DONATE HERE - http://www.gofundme.com/bu0168 NOTE: There is also a pledge from Dan Apodaca for - $100.00, but it won't be going through the "GO FUND ME" account, so it can't be counted in the total. The $4275.00 MUST be MET through "Go Fund Me" per the way I set up this fund raising effort - and if doesn't meet that total - ALL of the pledged funds are NOT charged and NO money is raised. |
This is getting so close - just over $500 away from the FUNDING goal -
NOTE: just a reminder, this is an ALL or NOTHING effort...it HAS to reach the 4275.00 in order to receive ANY of these funds - anything less and the track gets ZERO, and nobody is charged one dime! |
We have been pledged enough to reach our FUND level - with over 3 weeks to spare...
$4,275 pledged of $4,275 goal

I just wanted to say we are so very fortunate and BLESSED to have received the overwhelming support we had with everyone pitching in. Some were from old racers and friends, some were from our current customers and a few Sponsors/Manufacturers who stepped in and help get us closer to the goal. We are so close to getting this to be a reality. If we can get this goal met this week, i can get the track scheduled for work asap! It will only be a BETTER CAL than before! I have a few ideas going once we are good to go and would love everyone to be part of it! Stay tuned.

We reached our goal in only 8 days - This is so cool - Thank You SOOO Much everyone who pledged their support.
I'll be arranging how to get the funds, and get them into Charlie's hands as quickly as possible so he can get the work under way - He SHOULD have time hopefully to have it done before his SWEEP TIRE CHALLENGE Race the end of August - NOW EVERYBODY get signed up for that...and prepare to run on an ALL NEW "CAL RACEWAY!" (well not ALL new, but...better) |
