Shifting into overdrive, we're back again after debuting the first ever
vegan-themed race car last year with our Vegan Powered Race Campaign.
This year, we are partnering with Compassion Over Killing and their Try Veg
campaign to fully sponsor multiple races this season, including free vegan
food and literature giveaways at select tracks.
Designed for speed and to bring a powerful vegan message to millions of
race fans on and off the track. The Vegan Powered race car in the ARCA
Racing Series is fielded by Venturini Motorsports. Veganism went mainstream
in 2017 at the most historic race tracks in America!
Join this year's Vegan Strong Race Car action with professional driver and
dedicated activist for animal and environmental justice, racing and media
sensation Leilani Münter.
The first race is around the corner on Saturday, February 10th at Daytona
International Speedway.
Watch live coverage starting at 4:30pm EST on Fox Sports 1 and keep the
conversation moving with #VeganStrong and #BodyByVegan. Sign up for updates
and/or follow Leilani on Facebook.
