BimmerWorld Racing drivers Seth Thomas, James Clay and Matt Richmond donated $7,500 of the team's winnings to the Wheelchair Foundation in a check presentation ceremony following the SCCA SPEED World Challenge Touring Car race Sunday, Oct. 17 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.

Thomas and Clay presented the check to Jason Katz, Associate Director of Community Relations for the Wheelchair Foundation, which will be used to purchase 100 new wheelchairs for those in need.

"The Wheelchair Foundation is grateful for the support that BimmerWorld Racing has shown us," Katz said. "Their donation means granting the gift of mobility to those who need it most. We are pleasantly surprised at the generous amount that BimmerWorld was able to donate and we look forward to a continued relationship with BimmerWorld Racing."

"You really can't describe in words how this affects the kids and the families until you see their faces," Thomas said describing the impact of the team's donation. "The Wheelchair Foundation is an organization that does a lot of good for people throughout the world. We're just glad that we can be a part of it and that we can help them out. We want to help kids and adults have fun with their lives, while we're having fun racing. It's just something that we can give back."
