Join us at the Petersen Automotive Museum from 11:00AM to 7:00PM on Saturday, July 24th, 2010. We will be creating a fun alternative to the traditional fundraiser. This year marks the 40th Anniversary of the classic 1970 Le Mans 24 Hour Endurance Race where Porsche beat Ferrari. Now it’s time for a rematch, but in 1/32nd scale. For many car enthusiasts, slot cars were their first taste of Car Culture. Our goal is to raise awareness about Multiple Sclerosis, while bringing slot cars and slot car history to the Petersen Automotive Museum, and having BIG FUN doing it! Events Include: – A TWO HOUR 1970s LE MANS STYLE CELEBRITY SLOT CAR ENDURANCE RACE FEATURING FOUR TEAMS. It’s not the real thing, but we hope it’s the next best thing.
