There’s more to NASCAR, XFINITY Series driver Joey Gase than meets the eye as he has an inspirational message to share wherever he goes.  He shares that message on his race car every week that he’s behind the wheel, and when he’s not behind the wheel he’s in front of groups across the country spreading awareness about the ‘Gift of Life’ through organ donation. So Gase see’s every chance to race, as another chance to not only get his best result, but to carry his message to thousands of people inside and outside the world of racing.
