Get Involved
Join us on The Mother Road!
Whether it’s one stop or the whole trip, you’ll be sure to have an unforgettable experience. Eddie & Kelly Baugher, series chaplains for the NHRA Mission Foods series, will lead the way in either their 1977 MG Midget or 1978 MGB.
It wouldn’t be a Racers For Christ trip without stops at some amazing motorsports complexes, including Tulsa Raceway Park, Amarillo Dragway, and hopefully, Pomona Dragstrip.
Sponsor to support the ministry!
Sponsoring is a great way to advertise your business, celebrate America, promote motorsports, and help Racers For Christ continue serving the motorsports community in Jesus’ name. Sponsorship opportunities range from $1-$10,000.
Depending on your sponsorship level, you could be given a stop on route, your name on Eddie and Kelly’s car, ad space on promotional materials, recognition on the website, and more.
Share your creative side!
Racers For Christ is hosting a Coloring Contest open to all ages, and it’s the perfect way for kids, families, and fans to get creative and join the fun. Win a Route 66 keychain, an ice cream gift card and an RFC hat.
