Car Racing's Richmond Memorial ARCA RE/MAX 200


An HIV/AIDS testing event preceded the Tim Richmond Memorial ARCA RE/MAX 200 in Mansfield, OH, to commemorate 20-year anniversary of racing legend Tim Richmond's death and raise HIV/AIDS awareness within the NASCAR community.

Tim Richmond was a highly successful driver whose life was cut short due to the AIDS virus in 1989. Richmond competed in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series (currently the Sprint Cup Series) and was one of Hendrick Motorsports most successful drivers, launching the team to contender status while still in its infancy.

Fans who participated in the testing were each given a free t-shirt and entered to win a Richard Petty Driving Experience Ride-Along Experience to be used at one of the 20 locations across the country.
