When it comes to racing everyone seems to have their own agenda and understandably so. However one of the biggest misconceptions regarding agendas that some drivers have is that not all of them are hell bent on leather to just win races. On the contrary many drivers are more than happy just being part of the adventure and sharing all that they love with others and taking part of all that it entails… The excitement, the smell of fuel and burning rubber, the sights and sounds of cars sliding as gracefully into the apex of a turn much like the elegant hand of Sophia Loren slipping into a perfectly fit evening glove.

I really admire any racer that feels the need to give back something but there are a few that love it so much in fact that not only do they want to enjoy it and share that experience with others but in fact they go out of their way to find a way to use it to help others. One such person is none other than Michael Emery of Lucha Libre Racing and I feel it worth mentioning. Recently BRINGATRAILER.COM wrote a nice article about Michael and his efforts to not only race again in this years La Carrera Panamericana but also about his efforts to raise money to help a very worthwhile cause.

There will be more posted with regards to this cause as California’s Best Racing Team also takes part helping out the same efforts when we attend the get together in San Miguel de Allende in October with many other La Carrera Panamericana teams and celebrities. Trust me when I tell you, the efforts made by racing gentlemen like Michael Emery really DO make a difference and if that doesn’t put a smile on your face nothing ever will. Take the plunge and send something his way. Even the smallest amount makes a HUGE difference in Mexico.
