Indy Pro Series championship leader Alex Lloyd and his team Sam Schmidt Motorsports have launched the 'Racing for Recovery Challenge'.
Individuals and companies in the United States have been asked to sponsor a race car with all proceeds going towards Sam Schmidt's Paralysis Foundation.
If Alex wins either race at this weekend's Grand Prix Liberty Challenge at Indianapolis, those responsible for the pledges will agree to donate one thousand dollars to the foundation.
Alex says he has been very pleased with his team's efforts this year:
