Get Ryan Ellis to the Chili Bowl!
Donation protected
56 years ago, my grandfather, Vic Ellis, an open-wheel champion of many years, was killed in an a midget crash in Cedar Rapids. Since then, racing has been a piece of the Ellis family week in and week out. My father raced his whole life, and I have raced since I was four years old.
The opportunity to race in the Chili Bowl would be one of a kind for my family. It would mean so much to my family to go full-round circle and compete in the Chili Bowl Nationals in a car similar to the one my grandfather competed in many years ago. Any dollar we receive will be put towards the race team and not a dime into any pocket outside of funding the race car. Thank you so much for your help.![](https://2dbdd5116ffa30a49aa8-c03f075f8191fb4e60e74b907071aee8.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/2616548_1416358258.0648_funddescription.jpg)
