Tim Sauter to Help Raine Angelley

Tim Sauter to Help Raine Angelley
Charlotte-area boy in need of kidney transplant to be guest of McGill  
Motorsports at the CARQUEST Autoparts 300 at Lowes Motor Speedway  
May, 27th.

While many 14 year olds are out playing baseball or riding four- 
wheelers with their friends, Mooresville, NC teenager Raine Angelley  
stays home resting, the headaches too great to enjoy a normal teen  
life. The pain is not from any normal headache but rather, caused by  
the multiple daily medications he must take to aid him in his fight  
against polycystic kidney disease. PKD is a disorder that causes the  
formation of cysts in the kidneys. Raines was born with the disorder  
and his kidney function is now below 20%.

Several possible kidney donors have been located but the costs  
associated with a transplant, hospitalization and medications are  
staggering. Insurance covers a large percentage of the bills but the  
co-pays alone are over $500.00 per month.

Lester Buildings and McGill Motorsports (#36) driver Tim Sauter heard  
about Raine’s plight through Vic and Donna Getzloff. “Vic and  
Donna have been involved in motorsports for years, all the way back  
to Vic being Dick Trickle’s crew chief for many years back in  
Wisconsin. They helped me for years in both ASA and the Busch series.  
Donna called me a few weeks ago and explained what was going on with  
Raine and I told her I thought we could help raise some awareness for  
Raine’s condition.�??

The team will run Raine’s picture on the car along with the phone  
number to make a donation to the Raine Angelley Fund to help offset  
the costs of an upcoming transplant operation. Raine along with his  
father will also be special guests of the McGill Motorsports team and  
driver Tim Sauter prior to the event Saturday evening and will get an  
up close tour of the garage area at the Lowes Motor Speedway.

Lester Buildings Vice President Larry Lembrich is proud to help such  
a cause. “When we were first approached to help out and learned  
about the severity of Raines condition, it was an easy decision for  
us to get involved. Most important is to see Raine get the medical  
care he needs. He’s a strong young man to endure what he is going  
through.�??
