The key here is exposure. It's gona feel like you're whoring out your name and activities, but that's how you grow in the eyes of everyone invloved. The charity has to see you in a good light and as a person who can make things happen. They accept donations as much as they want exposure - the more people know about the charity and fun activities that generate money, the more money they'll eventually receive. The race track also wants exposure. Events that put the track in a good light because of safe, fun conditions all for a good cause, makes them look like they are continuing to contribute to the community. And finally, your dedication to something selfless, while still paying your own track fees, gets you the exposure you need for the NASCAR program, the practice you need behind the wheel (regardless of your racing preferences for a career down the road) and the chance at gathering local sponsorship to move you from a weekend driver to amature and eventually semi pro in regional events. Make sure you network with the companies, drivers and track owners. The more people know about you, the more likely they'll be willing to give you a reference when you pursue a pro career.

Spend as much time as you can shmoozing as driving, and you'll enjoy bigger success.
