By Autoblog.com - Ahead of this weekend's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at the Atlanta Motor Speedway, Chevrolet is once again introducing an official pace car that will do more than just lead the field under cautions. Just like last year, Chevy is fielding a bright pink Camaro SS for the AdvoCare 500, and it will also help raise money for the American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer program.
During the Sprint Cup race, Chevrolet will donate US$200 for every lap run under caution. In the 2011 Atlanta race, it had a similar donation that ended up totaling US$12,800 after 64 caution laps. As a bonus, this Camaro pace car spent Friday at the track as Chevrolet Racing hosted 30 breast cancer survivors who got rides around the track from Jamie McMurray and Ron Hornaday, Jr. as well as having the chance to meet Danica Patrick.
The car includes the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer logo, and the pink ribbon symbolizing National Breast Cancer Awareness Month prominently featured on the hood.
There are various ways and forms in which you can make such a donation and benefit the society as well as yourself. The place where you donate your car can make use of it for helping others while you yourself ill get relived to a certain extent from the income tax depending upon the rules laid down in your country.
