The Nelson Ledges Safety Fund
Donations List (2008)
Scott Nelson
Middleburg Heights, Ohio
I think my $600 "economy stimulus" check is at home. So half to this fund and half towards a new pair of SIDI boots. Gotta help out a track that is only 50 mins from my house.
Sean Mueller
Winchester, Virgina
I like to donate arbitrary amounts of money.
Aaron Hardiman
Royal Oak, Michigan
You can count me in for $50. I love that track. It would be much cooler though if it was a little safer. (thumbs up!)
Eddie Kraft
Macomb, Michigan
Thanks Aaron and JB for starting it off. I'll contribute another $50 myself and cover the difference of the Paypal fees for all who donate. That's 3 down and 17 more to go.
Andrew Sexton
Westlake, Ohio
Ok, I'm in for 50 clams (or is that Ducats given my preferred bike type?)
Mike Books
Grand Rapids, Michigan
Donated! Thank you to everyone for all you do to keep us safe!
Jeff Reagan
Dublin, Ohio
Given what I've personally experienced the last two USGPRU rounds, and the fact that I help sponsor a FASTTRAX team here, it is a no-brainer to contribute. Thanks for organizing this.
Kurt Kearcher
Charleroi, Pennsylvania
I've gone off turn one at Nelson and didn't enjoy my options of trying to ride it out on a rutted, grassy hillside or lay the bike down before getting to the tires (Coward that I am, I chose option 2 ). I was thankful for all of the runoff room at BeaveRun last weekend when I went off the track coming down the hill and had the time to collect my wits and the bike and get back on the track without any trouble.
Jeff Kovack
Windsor, Ontario
$50 sent from me. I never donated the first time around, and promised i would.
John Noel Bartlett
Oil City, Pennsylvania
A good cause and well worth a donation. Thanks for putting it together.
Andrea Wilson
Royal Oak, Michigan
I like to watch you guys race. It's not much but I put in $25. Anything to make the track safer. (thumbs up!)

Donations List (2006)
Doug Sheets
Meadville, PA
My shop is cleaning out a bunch of scrap steel and aluminum. I'll take it to the recycler and whatever I get I'll send on to the fund. Thanks for stepping up and getting it done. I can take my backhoe over when they want to do some work.
Sean Mueller
Winchester, Virginia
Emptied the old paypal account. And I guess I felt a little guilty for not doing squat track-wise this year, so it was the least I could do. Not to mention the fact I wacked the tire wall in turn 4 back in May, so maybe my brain still ain't right. Not that it ever was "right".
Jeff Agnes
Northeast Ohio
It's a start. I'll talk to the local dealership here and see if they can make a contribution too. Let's all help make the place safer. Here's $201.00 because I refuse to be beaten by Matthias! ;D
Matthias Schaub
Dayton, Ohio
Good job; Spiegler Performance Parts will donate $200.00. I will send you a check.
Sportbike Tracktime
Delta, Ohio
Don Kinsey
Buffalo, New York
The checks in the mail.
Sam Williams
Akron, Ohio
A fine idea. Scott and Kerrie are working very hard to make it a better track. I am happy to give $100 to the cause. I have had many fun times at this track.
Michael "H" Falconer
Royal Oak, Michigan
I really like the Ledges. Funds are on the way from H-man.
Michelle & Doug Shelfoon
White Lake, Michigan
Fantastic idea - will Paypal when I get home tonight.
Eric & Shelley Johnston
Rochester, Michigan
Shelley and I have sent $100 in memory of my friend Mike Fox. Mike died at Grattan on June 5, 2004 after he went off at T10. Thanks for taking the initiative to help.
Sean Clarke
WERA HQ, Georgia
I'm in for $100 since I'm twice the man most of you are. :)
Jim & Tanya Johnston
Ferndale, Michigan
$100 from Jim & Tanya.
Jim Sublet
Ohio
Donating $100 in memory of Bob Stanley.
Andrew Sexton
Westlake, OH
Thanks, sent 66 buck-a-roos in. Suggest letting us know in a public forum what we did, collectively, to make the place safer.
Sunny Chang
Dearborn, Michigan
This is an awesome thing you started! $1000 is definitely a very small part of the tip of an iceberg Nelson is dealing with here, but it's a start!
Marc McMaster
State College, PA
I'm always on board for making racetracks safer .. $50 for me and I'll see if I can recruit some more folks.
Aaron and Annie Kidd
Lafayette, Indiana
Too bad you're not coming to Nashville, I could just give it to you then. I'll have Annie Paypal you.
Mike Flis
Warren, Michigan
Count me in as well for $50.00. Will be sending it when I get back from Nashville. Scott and Kerrie are some good people and care a lot about the riders.
Shaun Harris
New Zealand
Seeing as I will be racing there next season, 50 in ya kitty, and good on ya.
Larry Glaze
Columbus, Ohio
Another $50 on its way ... and I will volunteer to watch Pete and Robert restack tires. Ok, I will help stack tires too.
Dave Arkle
Nashville, Tennessee
Let's get the man on here and find out exactly what improvement we're buying! It would be cool to ride by a nice new fluffy gravel trap and think "I did that." I'm in for $50.
Henry DeLuca
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania
Here's $50 for safety improvements. Got to put my money where my mouth is.
Scott McKee
Trenton, New Jersey
Anything to help improve my favorite track. Thanks for getting this going.
Trent Thomas
Waynesville, North Carolina
Sent $25 (since I'm broke and cheap.) Don't want to dilute the chances on the gloves for the real contributers, so you can remove me from the pool for that drawing if you want. Or, if I win, I'll sell and donate proceeds to the fund. Good idea and thanks.
Ysiu Yan and Dorjan Scott
Euclid, OH
Sorry, not as much as we'd like to but wanted to donate something! We appreciate your efforts to help increase the level of safety at Nelson Ledges.
