CANADIAN NATIONAL AUTISM FOUNDATION NIGHT UP NEXT FOR
CARSTAR WEEKLY RACING SERIES

(Halifax, NS. July 31, 2019) Scotia Speedworld’s CARSTAR Weekly Racing Series is proud to present KIDS RACE on behalf of the Canadian National Autism Foundation (CNAF). The CNAF will be at Scotia Speedworld on Friday night with information on their foundation as four divisions of race cars battle. On track this week are the Toursec Thunder & Lightning cars, Strictly Hydraulics Legends and the Sportsman will run two features races! The sportsman feature on May 31st was fogged out so they will hit the track for features twice this Friday evening!

Adult admission is just $15.00; Youth (8-15) are $5.00 and children 7 and under are free…all summer long! Tickets are available at the gate on race day (cash only). Grandstand gates open at 5:00 PM with racing action slated to get underway at 7:00 PM.

KIDS RACE was started in 2010 as an idea to create a new platform for autism research and awareness” said the President of the CNAF, Tina Fougere. “It wasn’t too long after speaking and working alongside track owners, officials, drivers, crews and fans across the country that a common bond was formed. We realized that passion, dedication, family and the love for what we do, was something we all shared. KIDS RACE is all about having family fun for a great cause and accepting our loved ones with autism. We couldn't ask for a better place in Nova Scotia to host our family event than with the wonderful people at Scotia Speedworld who have opened their doors, but most importantly their hearts, to our cause.”

Please note Kids Race is not an actual race, it is just a name the CNAF uses to brand their events at race tracks across the country. On track action will be the same as every other CARSTAR Weekly Racing Series event.

Joining Tim Terry as co-hosts for the evening are Hydraulics Plus Bandolero drivers Nyk Pothier and Dylan MacMillan.
