All the proceeds from the race were given to the Wishing Star Foundation to help give kids an opportunity to live their dream. The competition this year was unbelievable as the event started to take place through practice into qualifying. Jammin driver Chad Bradley TQed the first round of Buggy and Truggy with teammate Ryan McCrery a close 2nd , while Jammin drivers Rick McCrery and Anthony Howarth putting it in the top 10.
