On Saturday, June 13th, Parker Retzlaff returns to the track piloting the No. 99 FDNY Foundation Chevrolet for Viking Motorsports for the NASCAR Cup Series race at Pocono Raceway.
Parker and the Viking team are proud to carry the colors of the FDNY Foundation. This special event honors the 25th anniversary of September 11th, paying tribute to the 343 FDNY members who died that day and in the years since, while supporting the ongoing mission of fire safety and training for New York’s Bravest.
This special entitlement event carries profound significance as it honors the milestone 25th anniversary of September 11th. The partnership serves as a tribute to the 343 FDNY members who died on 9/11 and the hundreds more who have died since then, ensuring their legacy of courage is never forgotten. Proceeds and awareness raised through this partnership will assist in providing fire safety education along with operational advances and state-of-the-art training for the FDNY’s thousands of firefighters, EMTs and paramedics.
“Having the FDNY Foundation backing us for a demanding track like Pocono is truly incredible,” said Parker Retzlaff, driver of the No. 99 Chevrolet. “Pocono requires absolute focus and endurance, but racing for a cause much bigger than ourselves gives this entire No. 99 team an entirely new level of motivation. I am deeply honored to represent the FDNY Foundation and to drive in remembrance of the heroes who gave everything.”
