Live Fast Motorsports Concludes Brain Tumor Association Fundraiser

Live Fast Motorsports closes the fundraiser for the American Brain Tumor Association that had donators provide their name or a loved ones of whom they wanted on-board the No. 78 Ford Mustang at the doubleheader race weekend in Pocono. On behalf of team owners Matt Tifft and BJ McLeod, the team sincerely wants to thank everyone who has donated to the ABTA fundraiser for the Pocono double header race weekend. Thanks to your help, we have raised tens of thousands of dollars to help find better treatments and cures for brain tumors.

“As you may know, I was directly affected by a brain tumor,” said team owner Matt Tifft. “However, so many people have had it worse that are not with us here today, and that is why I have always pushed for a change with my platform. The work that the American Brain Tumor Association does changes lives, by saving lives with giving funding and research abilities to medical groups that are otherwise underfunded to help cure this horrendous disease.”

“It is so meaningful to us for the hundreds of people that stepped up to pitch in, or remember a loved one, to help support this cause. I would like to personally thank Celsius Energy Drink as well, not only for their contribution all year to our team, but for stepping up and donating thousands of dollars to help support our cause. This is not something that was even a hesitation from their group, and I personally thank the CEO, John Fieldly for being such a great human being,” Tifft concluded.

Fans, if you were not able to be a part of this weekend’s fundraiser, please go to TheABTA.org and donate there. Thank you to our fans and supporters, we can’t wait to have your name or a loved ones ride along us for both races at Pocono Raceway!

Coverage of the NASCAR Cup Series race at Pocono Raceway begins with the first race on Saturday, June 26th at 3:00 p.m. ET followed by the second race on Sunday, June 27th at 3:30p.m. ET. Live coverage will be on NBCSN, Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM.
