POSITION ONE MOTORSPORTS SAYS ‘THANK YOU’ TO AMERICAN VETERAN HEROES

Giving Thanks to a Hero” program will recognize America’s Military best Baldwin Park, CA (May 24, 2011) - Position One Motorsports is pleased to announce that, beginning at the May 28th Late Model race event held at the Toyota Speedway at Irwindale, the team will be officially launching its "Giving Thanks to a Hero" program. The contest will honor a person who is serving, or has served in the Military, by providing them with track admission and suite passes for themselves and 5 of their guests. With servicemen/servicewomen and their families involved in the 10-year plus war on terrorism and the enormous sacrifices many of them have had to make in order to make this country safer, the Position One Motorsports team is hoping that the program will in some small way show that the team, along with the Toyota Speedway at Irwindale racing community, is appreciative of their sacrifices.

 The program was the idea of Position One Motorsports team owner Luis Martinez. “Veterans and their families have sacrificed much in order that we Americans can enjoy our lifestyle and freedoms and this is really just a small way that we can give back to them and say a heartfelt thank you”, states Martinez. Beginning with the Memorial Day race weekend (May 28th), Position One will begin hosting the first selection and their guests. Those selected will be chosen for every other race until the October 1st race. Anyone can nominate a veteran and in that nomination the submitter is encouraged to explain why his or her nominee should be selected. Nominations shall be submitted via email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
