Joey Logano Foundation Presents: Hometown Showdown! Inaugural Karting Event to Benefit The Connection

NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Joey Logano will be heading back to his home state of Connecticut to race for a cause at his foundation’s inaugural Hometown Showdown Driven by AutoTrader.com. This friendly go-karting competition is set for Thursday, September 18th from 4:00 – 9:00 p.m. at On Track Karting in Wallingford, CT. The night will provide an opportunity for fans to test their racing skills against Joey and other participants in fun competition, all while raising money for The Connection.

In addition to the on track racing, the event will host a variety of activities, such as a silent auction, a raffle, swag bags with great gear, and plenty of face time with Joey. The competition will be a team-based race, with multiple heats to start the evening and a final tournament style showdown with Joey himself. There will also be a race for individuals to race against each other for a $2,000 Dash 4 Cash. A limited number of spectator passes are also available.
