SEE THE CHAMPION, HELP THE CAUSE

Listen up NASCAR fans!  A select group of fans will have the opportunity to attend the eagerly anticipated Southern California debut of the Car of Tomorrow at Auto Club Speedway, attend a special fan forum with Jimmie Johnson and also help to raise money for the Jimmie Johnson Foundation…have we got your attention now?

If you act quickly, you can be one of those lucky fans by purchasing one of the remaining Jimmie Johnson Foundation ticket packages for the 2008 Auto Club 500.

Auto Club Speedway has again partnered with the two-time defending Sprint Cup Champion and Southern California native, Jimmie Johnson, on a ticket promotion that is one of the best deals in racing.  Not only can you attend the most anticipated race in Southern California in years and get up close and personal with the driver coming off one of the greatest seasons in NASCAR history but you’re also helping a great cause. $48 of the $148 ticket package price from every Jimmie Johnson Foundation ticket package will go directly to benefit the Jimmie Johnson Foundation.

Fans who purchased last year’s ticket package helped raise over $30,000 for the Jimmie Johnson Foundation with proceeds going to the construction of a Habitat for Humanity home in Jimmie’s hometown of El Cajon, CA.

The complete package includes a race ticket in rows 11-23 for the Auto Club 500 on Sunday, February 24, admission to an exclusive question and answer session with Johnson, a pre-race pit pass and to top it off, a limited edition Lucite stock car commemorating Johnson's first-ever NEXTEL Cup victory at Auto Club Speedway on April 28, 2002!  What more could you ask for?

A limited number of the Jimmie Johnson Foundation ticket packages are still available.  To purchase tickets please call 800 944-RACE (7223).
