Help Me


I, along with several family members and the crew of the Traveler ’33 Willys witnessed the crash of this car driven by my son, Ted Turley, Jr. at the Hot Rod Reunion on Saturday, June 14. We are all thankful that Ted was not seriously injured and would like to thank your safety personnel and other members of your staff for their assistance. Not being able to get on to the track and having to wait by the fence for confirmation of Ted’s condition was the most terrifying moments of my life. As I waited there were two other ladies by the fence who did their best to comfort me; each of them even gave me a hug to let me know they understood how I was feeling. One of those ladies, Vicki (I don’t know her last name) used her golf cart to give me a ride to the turnoff where Ted and his dad, Ted, Sr. were waiting. We picked up Ted, Sr. and she drove us back to our pit area. She did mention that her husband races but I don’t know if he is a regular at your track; I only know that the golf cart was maroon, she was of medium height with dark shoulder length hair. I would very much like to find this lady to thank her personally and would appreciate your sharing this in track announcements, any newsletter you might have or on your website. Once again, thank you to your staff for their assistance at this very scary time.

 
If you need any further information, please feel free to contact me.

RACING FOR A PURPOSE!!!





A Mustang and little girl named Emilee have joined forces. Nine year old Emilee battles diabetes every day and she has since the age of 5 in 2010.   Her family has been great support to her. Emilee's dream is that someday there will be a cure for diabetes. Camp Hendon was created for children like Emilee to have a place to go each summer to interact with other children with diabetes. Please help them to raise money for Emilee and other diabetic children to attend Camp Hendon this year. All proceeds will be donated to pay for expenses associated with attending and running the summer camp.

Emilee now nine and her family have teamed up in support of a cure. Brenda and Swain Hurt are taking their 89 Mustang GT Hatchback and are now preparing it for Show and Bracket racing for the purpose of finding a cure for Juvenile Diabetes and to bring awareness to the cause. The Hurt family funding themselves with no sponsors currently at this time. A feat anyone knows in the racing and show world that does not come cheap when converting a ride into a show or race car. The family in order to make this happen are making many sacrifices.

Currently the Hurt family are in the beginning stages of modifying this already astounding beauty into a beast with a mission. They have purchased a truck to pull a trailer and now are in search of the trailer. Also starting the process of preparing the Mustang for track time. The theme will be Emilee’s Race for a Cure, which will be the exterior graphic design of the car. The hope is to have the ride ready by 2015 to present on the show and bracket racing circuit.

Swain Hurt will be piloting the ride and Brenda will be acting as Crew Chief with their daughters Emilee and Hailee acting as the up and coming pit crew. All money raised or won through bracket races with go to the JDRF, “Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation”, in search of a cure for type one Diabetes.  A Facebook page has been created to accept donations.   Visit Facebook page “Emilee’s Hope for a Cure”  https://www.facebook.com/emileeshopeforacure 

 Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers! Thank You.
