Junior Open Wheel Talent

The Star Mazda Championship has aligned itself with the Racing For Kids Program once again and will be making five scheduled stops at children's hospitals in 2009.

The current schedule for hospital visits is as follows...

• Salt Lake City, Utah (Miller Motorsports Park)
• Joliet, Illinois (Autobahn Chicago)
• Trois Rivières, Quebec (Trois Rivières)
• Atlanta, Georgia (Road Atlanta)
• Monterey, California (Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca)

Ten drivers have signed up to participate in 2009:

• Alex Ardoin
• Toshihiro Deki
• Ryan Booth
• Chris Cumming
• Billy Goshen
• Taylor Hacquard
• Kristy Kester
• J.C. Kester
• Caio Lara
• Joel Miller

I will conclude by saying it's great to see this list of young drivers taking an active role to help better the lives of others. Star Mazda has done a nice job over the past few years working with the Racing for Kids foundation... hopefully this is a tradition that we will see for year's to come.
