Jack Sullivan To Brave The Shave & Raise Money For Cancer FoundationsGreenbrier, Arkansas (07/21/10) – Jack Sullivan driver of the #1 AAA Diesel/Bryant Motorsports/GRT/Vic Hill Racing Engine Super Late Model is one of several drivers, who are coming together to help fight cancer by “Braving the Shave”.
The Brave The Shave Campaign is part of the “A Head For A Cure Organization,” which is a nonprofit organization that was created by Super Late Model racer, Jeep Van Wormer, to help raise money for cancer research. The Children's Cancer Fund of America, Cancer Research Institute, and American Cancer Society all benefit from the program.
This program is special to Jack and the entire Sullivan family. Jack notes, “My Mom has worked as a Nurse in oncology for several years, and our family has been affected by cancer. As a result, I want to do anything that I can to raise money for cancer research and help fight the battle.”
In addition to Jack Sullivan, several other drivers have signed on to “Brave the Shave” including Shannon Babb, Rick Eckert, Jimmy Owens, Brandon Kinzer, Jeep Van Wormer, Brady Smith, Brian Birkhofer, Jon Blankenship, Eddie Carrier Jr., Shane Clanton, Steve Francis, and more.
The driver, who receives the most donations in their name, will have his head shaved first on the front stretch at the World 100 at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio on September 10th-11th, 2010. Jack wants to be the first driver to have his head shaved, so to donate online, please go to
www.ahead4acure.com and donate in Jack Sullivan’s name. Race fans can donate any denomination that they want, and each and every cent is greatly appreciated.
Race fans will also have a chance to donate this weekend, July 23rd-24th at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Arkansas as Jack will be there racing in a pair of O’Reilly SUPR Super Late Model events. Donation buckets will be available at the concession stand and helmets will be passed through the stands at intermission. For more information on the event, please visit
