Jimmie Johnson announced he will donate ALL his earnings from the Atlanta race on Sunday to the Red Cross Wildfire Relief Fund. Lowes, Hendrick Motorsports, Bruton Smith, and many others have followed along announcing similar donations after this weekends race. thumbright

"Johnson, through the Jimmie Johnson Foundation, and Hendrick Motorsports will donate their winnings from Sunday's NASCAR Nextel Cup race at Atlanta Motor Speedway to assist Red Cross relief efforts throughout Southern California. Lowe's and Smith will each match those contributions dollar for dollar."

THis could easily break a million dollars !!!

When I was younger I thought fly fishing was more important than everything else. Now that I'm older I realize that I was right.

This is the kind of thing that restores ones faith in the human race! thumbleft

Now, it only seems fitting that all the other drivers should move aside on Sunday, and allow Jimmy to maximize the contribution he has so generously pledged. wink_smile

Happy Trails,

What a wonderful thing for Jimmie Johnson to do for our fire victims...Humanity at it's best

I don't normally watch NASCAR racing, but I'm going to have to tune in today and root him on!

Go Jimmie!!

That's going to be a healthy check!

My son is a big Jimmie Johnson fan. For his birthday last summer I mailed a JJ flag and birthday card to the JJ fan club with a return envelope. Jimmie signed them both and mailed them back. My son is still not sure how JJ knew it was his birthday, but JJ went being a hero to an immortal.
