Boston, MA-September 10, 2010-Guardian Angel Motorsports readies for the 2011 season at the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series Season Finale this weekend. They’re partnering with drivers Eric Curran and Boris Said in the Marsh Racing/Whelen Engineering No. 31 Chevrolet Corvette, sponsored by ModSpace.
Guardian Angel Motorsports (GAM) co-founder, Bruce Ledoux, is raising money for children’s charities. For Ledoux, it’s personal as his son Colin has a chromosomal disorder resulting in permanent global delays. “Colin needs a guardian angel, so do a lot of kids with disabilities. That’s how we came up with the idea for the charity.” GAM has competed in the Rolex 24 Hour for the past two years, raising over $140,000 for children’s charities.
GAM’s title sponsor, ModSpace, is not a new player to motorsports or to using their racing program to support a worthy cause. ModSpace Motorsports, currently competing on a national circuit in the ARCA series, donates all of their race earnings to the American Red Cross.
ModSpace CEO, Charles Paquin, sees this as an opportunity to use motorsports to benefit the worthy cause of GAM, which supports children’s charities by helping children who cannot help themselves.
William Mann, Director of ModSpace Motorsports says, “We are extremely proud to be a part of this important and heart felt cause”.
Ledoux added, “But this weekend, it’s all about racing and raising awareness.”
Saturday’s Rolex race will be televised live on SPEED TV, starting at 2pm ET.
