Racing for a Cause

NASCAR enthusiasts had the chance to test their driving abilities Dec. 6 at Johnston Industrial Supply, 1345 N. Nias Ave., in Springfield. Customers were invited to get behind the wheel for a three-minute ride in a racecar simulator. The sponsor of the event, 3M Corp., is also the title sponsor for the car driven by NASCAR rookie racer Todd Kluever. The event also served as a fund-raiser, as Johnston collected donations to help purchase gifts for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House during the holidays.
