Chesterfield Virginia's favorite son is returning home Thursday night to light up Southside Speedway and put on a show the fans will be glad they didn't miss. Only this time he's bringing some company. Teammate Kyle Busch will join his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate for the Denny Hamlin 175 to benefit the Denny Hamlin Foundation Thursday night at the Fed Ex Toyota driver's old stomping grounds. They're hoping to raise money to help The Cysic Fibrosis Foundation and people who suffer from CF. This is a cause close to Hamlin's heart, as his cousin Kevin has CF, but is doing well.
NASCAR legend Bobby Allison will be the Grand Marshall for the event. Denny's spotter, Curtis Markham will also be onhand for the race. It promises to be quite an event. Tickets will be on sale on race day, Thursday May 1st, at 3pm. Stop by the front ticket office at the speedway. Adult tickets are $20, children 7-12 are $10 and children under 6 are free.
