Quotes

"Chesterfield Auto Parts is always committed to the community, so we are excited to partner with Josh Bilicki and Rick Ware Racing to remember the lives that were lost 20 years ago on 9-11. In honoring the brave men and women who risk their lives daily, to keep us safe, all proceeds from the event will go to the Richmond Fire Department Foundation (RFD)," said CEO Troy Webber.

According to Bilicki, "We wanted to do something special for this race because of the 20th anniversary of 9-11. We painted the car to resemble a fire engine to remember the first responders who lost their lives that day. We are also auctioning off a Chesterfield Auto Parts race suit, with proceeds going to charity."
