Anybody showing up for this benefit.... Ken Stout and I have come up with a couple of fun money raisers with some competition involved. Ken Stout being the emcee and big name SOB he is, will make sure this happens.

Heavyweight class is 250lbs and over. The race is $100 a head and goes into a pot. The top 5 heavyweight racers will transfer to the main event. There will be a fly weight class that is 130lbs and under at $100 a head. The top 5 will transfer to the main event. The winner of each race will also put an extra $50 in the pot. The main event will be the top 5 heavy and top 5 fly weight racers. The winner of the main event will then put another $50 in the pot and and it over to Michelle for the Huseman Memorial Fund.

Get your fat or skinny self over to the event and bring cash. If you are outside of the category weights, gain or lose some weight.

Confirmed racing:
Myself
Ken Stout(Media Badass)
Kevin Davis (7s)
Tim Cecil (sign pros)

We just came up with this while making jokes so who is in? I know there are plenty of you big guys always complaining about the weight disadvantage. Here is your time to shine and donate!
