Jimmie Johnson Foundation and PIR Team Up Again

Phoenix International Raceway and the Jimmie Johnson Foundation join forces in 2009 for the April 16 NASCAR Camping World Series West race at PIR, which will again be named the Jimmie Johnson Foundation 150.

The Jimmie Johnson Foundation 150 is scheduled as the first of three races during the SUBWAY Fresh Fit 500™ event weekend, with the green flag dropping under PIR's bright lights at 7:15 p.m. on April 16.

This year's event will feature more than just a 150-mile race. A special "Night of Champions" party featuring Johnson will take place in PIR's Octane on the evening of the Jimmie Johnson Foundation 150. Proceeds from special racing items and memorabilia auctioned at the event will benefit the Jimmie Johnson Foundation and its partner programs, all with the intent of giving back to children in the Phoenix area and beyond. Visit the Jimmie Johnson Foundation web site for more info.
