Terry Vance Teams With Wayne Rainey, Motoamerica Racers Win

Spurred on by his donation to Wayne Rainey’s Ride To The Races charity event last year, industry icon Terry Vance has increased his donation this year. MotoAmerica, North America’s premier motorcycle roadracing series, is pleased to announce the Terry Vance Family Foundation is making the most generous donation in the history of the Roadracing World Action Fund, as part of the 4th Annual “Rainey’s Ride To The Races.” The drag racing legend and current MotoAmerica team owner is donating $125,000 to the fund for the purchase of the Airfence and Alpina soft barriers.

“First of all, I think it’s important to recognize the effort put forth by John Ulrich in not only starting the Roadracing World Action Fund, but in the continuous work of purchasing the soft barriers and maintaining the integrity of the fund,” Vance explains. “Donating to the Roadracing World Action Fund is a no-brainer for me as there is no better way to give back to the industry than by doing everything we can to protect our racers.”

“I think Terry’s donation this year is awesome,” adds MotoAmerica President Wayne Rainey. “Terry’s a racing legend and he understands how these soft barriers provide protection for our athlete’s safety. All of us at MotoAmerica really appreciate Terry’s contribution to the Action Fund through Rainey’s Ride to the Races. The entire paddock and our fans benefit from Terry’s very generous donation.”

“Rainey’s Ride To The Races” is set for Friday, July 12, opening day of the 6th round of the MotoAmerica Championship at Laguna Seca, and will again benefit the Roadracing World Action Fund, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that promotes motorcycle racing safety with the facilitation of soft barrier systems at racing events. “The soft barriers are a proven entity, and the bottom line is, they save lives,” concludes Vance. “What is more valuable than that? In making this donation, I ask that others in our industry take up the challenge of joining me in making our sport as safe as it can be.”
