When we say 100%, we mean it!  We pay all of our own racing bills, so when you donate through our link, your are actually donating directly to the Alzheimer's Association.  You will receive a tax receipt directly from that organization.  

 “Team” is the key word, as End Alzheimer’s Racing is definitely a team effort! While End Alzheimer’s Racing was founded by its current President and Director, Bill Slupski, there is a collective group effort behind the team on and off the track. 

Given that our races are endurance races, we have multiple drivers that race with us. Alex Slupski and Fernando Martins are the “regulars”, and not only contribute to driving duties, but are also key partners in the overall effort for End Alz Racing. We do have many others who join us on occasion, including Noah Propps, Chris McCoy, and Perry Herndon. And, the team will occasionally bring in a “ringer”, with 4 time 24 Hours of Daytona winner and 24 Hours of Le Mans podium finisher Joao Barbosa joining us. Continuing with the family focus, Joao’s son Rodrigo has raced with the team as well. Recent additions to the driving team include two really fast young guys with tons of experience, Aidan Kennedy and Nico Villanueva.

Steve Zongker and Mike Dunn play key roles with the team, with Steve acting as our primary team strategist and Mike handling team logistics in our longer races. For our karting efforts, Jorge Ruiz is our mechanic and tuner, ensuring that we always have a fast kart on track.
