AMA Pro Racer Damon Buckmaster and Jeanne Pyles, mother of racer Chris Pyles, helped send our Air Fence fund over $102,000 Thursday morning. Pyles contributed $250 and Buckmaster sent $150. Other contributions included $150 from Chris Hamilton/Grand Prix Direct, $100 from David Kunzelman, $30 each from The Heidepriems/WERA BBS and rider/race fan/pit keeper Kimberly Scheffel, and $25 from Marc Asmus.

Those donations, along with double-checking our math, brought the fund total to $102,260.

“I had to use an Air Fence and it was well worth it,” said Buckmaster when he made his contribution.
