2023 St. Jude Huge Thanks!

Almost 10 years ago, we began supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by donating a kit to the Pilots of FedEx for a charity build. This year was our ninth year and ninth kit donated. The Factory Five Mk4 Roadster built by Mike Bray, Ron Everitt, and their team of FedEx Pilot volunteers will be auctioned at this year’s St. Jude Memphis JAM Gala Auction. All money goes to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The 2023 build car is one of the nicest ever built in a charcoal metallic with black metallic stripes, 17″ Halibrand wheels, and Gen 3 Ford 5.0L Coyote engine with TKX transmission. We proudly support St. Jude and congratulate the FedEx Pilot builders, and pro builder Ron Everett who donated time for this great cause.

The Build Team that donated their time and travels included: Ronald Everitt, Michael Everson, Shon Driscoll, John Beach, Kyle Jensen, Doug Forsythe, Mike Bray and St. Jude Staff members JD Peeples and Kevin Nienhuis.

Thank you to all involved. We are very grateful for the opportunity to raise more money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and to know such great people who make this possible year after year!
