Fundraising
Throughout 2009 season UK blown-alcohol altered team and Eurodragster.com Bloggers Bennett Racing tried their hardest to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. As you can see from this letter they more than succeeded, having raised no less than £2000.

"We have to say a very big thank you to each and every person who put their hand in their pocket and donated", says Luke Bennett. "Needless to say we simply could not have done this without you all. So thank you from us all, and thank you from me to Lisa who organised most of the fundraising and to Eurodragster.com for running news items about our efforts (Thank you, any time - Ed).
"Hopefully people are aware what Macmillan do and the much-needed help that they give. Sadly pretty much everyone reading this probably knows someone who has had or is fighting cancer. That's a very scary statistic but progress is being made every day to find cures and better treatments for this disease.
"Once again a huge Thank You from everyone at Bennett Racing."
One of the family, Lisa Bennett also undertakes the Race For Life every year and has done for the last 7.
The reason she started was due to the death of her Aunt called Grace, she was diagnosed early in 2002 with myeloma cancer and after a very hard fought battle she passed away in December 2004.
The last one she completed was in June 2009 and was her 7th year. She did it at a steady pace and finished in 44 minutes, although her fastest was 33 in 2008.
The obvious reason she does it is to raise more money for Cancer Research so that a cure for cancer can be found and less people suffer.
To date she has raised over £1400 for them.
