On Sunday at Martinsville Speedway for the Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500 (1:30 p.m. ET, ESPN), Danica Patrick will have a few special passengers with her on her pink No. 10 GoDaddy Breast Cancer Awareness Chevrolet SS, including NASCAR.com’s own Holly Cain.
Fans who donated at least $10 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation through www.GoDaddy.com/Donate will find their names or the names of family or friends on the Stewart Haas Racing machine. Crew chief Tony Gibson’s wife, Beth, and Patrick herself added names of those they know who have been affected by breast cancer.
Patrick added Cain’s name as the writer continues to battle breast cancer among the hundreds of names on her car. Cain rode along over the passenger-side window of Clint Bowyer‘s Toyota Camry at Kansas Speedway earlier this month, and she participated in a news conference with the driver and Living Beyond Breast Cancer, a charity supported by sponsor 5-hour Energy.
“GoDaddy has done a lot to raise awareness about breast cancer,” Patrick said. “For this week, we have a lot of names on the car of people that are affected by breast cancer. I know I put a few on there, including Holly Cain.
“It’s just a good way to raise awareness and remember the people affect by this terrible disease. We’re all pulling for everybody to get through this and we’re helping ‘Put the Brakes on Cancer.'”
As part of her primary sponsor’s commemoration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Patrick also will present a check to the National Breast Cancer Foundation for $50,000 following driver introductions for the Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500.
