HELLO to all my friends. This is my family’s 18th year of running Kart Racing for Heroes events in honor of my son, Senior Airman Kristopher George Mansfield who was killed by an impaired driver. These are events that honor the people who are affected by impaired driving in their daily lives: the police, fireman, medics, tow truck drivers, families who deal with impaired driving crashes that didn’t have to happen.
We are holding this year’s first event with the fantastic help of the Colorado Karting Circuit at Centennial on Saturday June 21st. If you have contacts with any of the above Heroes, please contact me so we can arrange their attendance. Kart Racing for Heroes is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and with the help of donations (www.kartracingforheroes.org), these events are free of charge for all participants.

My 27,010 days of life have shown me many things. Respect the past, live for today and work to make it to the future. On this special day, I am proud to announce the fifteenth year of KART RACING FOR HEROES events. At these events, we honor police, firefighters, medics, MADD and military personnel who deal with the carnage of impaired driving. The first event this year will be on June 3rd at Grand Junction Motorsports. The second will be at Action Karting on August 20th. You may share this information with others or give me their info and I will contact them directly. We provide the karts and safety equipment, food, trophies and T-shirts listing our sponsors, at no cost for the participants.
I have a 501C3 so donations are encouraged and appreciated. Message me for further details.
