Leading Charity Races to Help Raise Awareness and Find a Cure for Neurofibromatosis

(New York, NY) -- The Children's Tumor Foundation today announced their season-long partnership with Compass360 Racing, using the nine remaining Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge races to raise awareness and donations for the charity.

CTF is the leading non-governmental funding source for neurofibromatosis (NF) research in the world. NF causes tumors to grow on nerves throughout the body, including the brain and spinal cord. It can lead to blindness, deafness, chronic pain, bone abnormalities, cancer, and a wide range of additional complications.

Daytona, FL -- The season started off for Andrew Novich and his Compass360 team in a manner that every driver could wish for in their first full season of the Grand Am Continental Tire series. A great drive by a rookie driver and a great 4th place result.

Going into the weekend Andrew, like all of the drivers, had dreams of being on the podium but after the practice sessions he and the team realized that getting there was going to be no easy task this year. The competition was stiff with more than 40 cars in the ST Class, all vying for the top spot on the charts.
