A spate of eBay auctions and several new donations have brought the Roadracing World Air Fence Fund (for road race use) total to $174,539.
Additional money came from Ken Hill ($3351 in the Bay auction of Eric Bostrom leathers), Andre Espaillet ($1325 in the eBay auction of a new set of custom-made Barnacle Bill leathers, on top of Andre’s earlier donation of $250,Jason Routhier ($810 in the eBay auction of Jamie James’ photo shoot leathers and boots) and anonymous ($412 in the eBay auction of a Helmet autographed by most of the 1999 Team Honda.)
Donations came in from Marcus McBain, adding $500 added to his previous donation of $1500; Leo Sulpy at $250; Thomas Pfuner/I&E Innovative Homes Racing Team at $130; Robert Sunday at $100; Chuck Perry at $100; Emmett Dibble at $100; Michael Janes(WERA,CCS) at $100; Michael Reeves at $50; Douglas Thompson at $50; Ryan Cilley/In Memory of Jamie Bowman at $50; Masahiro & Katsuo Iizuka/In Memory of Jamie Bowman/Toby Jorgensen at $50; Karl Axelson at $39; Cory Mann at $25; Gary Koppelman at $25; Steve Price at $25; and Frank Gonzales at $20.
“As always, thank you for your hard work,” wrote McBain. “My girlfriend Renate and I were witness to what the Air Fence is all about at the GNF this past year. This is the 4th GNF I have attended and the Air Fence was simply the bomb. I have witnessed GNF weekends with multiple ambulance calls and the Air Fence not only saved injuries, but more importantly, I believe it saved lives. As a racer, I felt comfortable knowing the Air Fence was there in case I needed it, too. Please accept $500 towards the Air Fence and as always, count on my future support.”
Emmett Dribble dedicated his $100 contribution to Natalie at Roadracing World, for looking for a hard-to-find back-issue for him.
Steve Price gave $25 “for all my BBS friends. Go Karter.”
Karl Axelson says the amount of his contribution of $39 has special significance, although he did not elaborate.
A $10 contribution attributed to “Anonymous” in an earlier post should have been credited to Glen Hewitt.
Meanwhile, the Roadracing World Air Fence Fund for dirt track use now totals $15,742 with a new $50 donation from Larry Woodward, who wrote, “Thanks for your help.”
