David’s Birthday is in July, and even though it is a ways off, I think purchasing tickets for David to do this would fulfill one of his and Charlies dreams. Because when Charlie was smaller, he wanted to be a Race Car Driver when he grew up. He and David had talked about building a car and racing it on a Dirt Track which they haven’t been able to do. So be watching to see if I can get tickets for David and Charlie to attend this new event.
