In between getting ready for the race at LasVegas Motor Speedway on October 13, team drivers Eddie Bryans, Alex Robertson and Sandy Bauler have also been doing multiple community fundraisers. The biggest fundraiser took place last Saturday at "Twilight at the Ranch" in Poway, California. The event was hosted by the Toby Wells Foundation, benefiting San Diego Mission Valley YMCA. The event raised over 60k with Bryans Racing Enterprises (D2Dracing.com) along with Drivetech Racing School offering the largest bid package for the evening.

The auction item called "Need for Speed", consisted of a "ride along", plus a driving School package and signage on both team cars (NASCAR Southwest Series & Late Model Sportsman) displaying their charity of choice. The winning bidder will also be mention in interviews regarding the race teams documentary airing on A&E on October 18, 2001. This documentary features Sandy's Daughter who is taking after her mom and getting into a racecar. The documentary will feature her first race at Cajon Speedway in Southern California.

Although Little Richard rocked the evening and appeared for a private show after the auction, the racing package was still the highlight of the evening and brought in 10k to benefit youth.
