Racing to End ALS

In 2017, David Lloyd Jr. was diagnosed with ALS, since then, he and his brother Scott have been racing to find a cure "It’s hard to think about the things that I may not be able to do in the future, but I’m lucky that my 'best brother,' Scott, helps me focus on the things I can do right now. Scott and I share a passion for cars, particularly, fast ones. Thanks to Scott, we’ve spent the last year living our dream or racing cars together, while I still can. For us, racing has become about finding a cure for ALS." You can read their story here.
