"I'm honored for the
opportunity to drive the RCR No. 33 Chevrolet," Lagasse said. "Mr.
Childress runs a first class organization, from his team all the way down to
the equipment he provides for them. Everyone at TeamSLR is excited to work with
Mr. Childress, Nick and all the guys over at RCR. We're looking forward to
seeing all the Boy Scouts at the race cheering us on and also delivering the
Alert Today Florida pedestrian and bicycle safety message.
"I am a cyclist, as are many
NASCAR drivers. It's important for everyone to remember traffic laws were
designed to keep everyone safe, especially more vulnerable road users like
pedestrians and bicyclists. So while you're driving to work to school or even
to the speedway, watch for us. Cyclists have a right to be there too, so please
share the road and help keep us safe."
Lagasse will pair with the Florida
Department of Transportation in their "Alert Today Alive Tomorrow"
initiative. The campaign helps raise awareness that safety doesn't happen by
accident, reminding everyone on the roadways to pay attention while following
the rules of the road. The Boy Scouts of America will also ride along as a
sponsor for the 200-lap event.
Lagasse will be making his third
Nationwide Series start at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
