I want to thank everyone again who helped make this a complete success.
There was a small amount left over since I saved significant $$ shopping at a local grocery store in Ontario, Ohio. for instance, eggs were only $.50 a dozen. We also had a few less people to feed than my estimates.
After all was said and done there was approximately $75 left over. I want to donate this to a charity that one of the 914 drivers works for. Ray Anderson from Texas works for Breudan Smith (sp) who set up Speedway Childrens Charities, which is kind of like Make-A-Wish foundation. 100% of donations goes to helping sick kids
Nothing is spent on administration costs since Mr. Smith (NASCAR track owner) is extremely wealthy.
I made a small donation at the Runoffs and put stickers on my race car already. In addition to the left over $75 I am going to raffle off a piece of my broken race car here and donate that $$ too.

One thing I forgot to mention in my first post - there were some left over hot dogs and hamburgers that we donated to a firehouse not far from the race track in Ontario, OH.
