Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee, the Nashville Superspeedway, and Rackley Roofing Company are giving Braeson and Tyree, two young race car fans, a once-in-a-lifetime experience at the speedway on Wednesday, June 16.

Braeson and Tyree are both four-years-old who are also avid racing fans. Their dreams will come true at the Nashville Superspeedway as they get custom racing suits, get to meet drivers Josh Berry and Kyle Neveau, and will drive around the pace-car with track president Erik Moses.

“We are honored to help these kids make their wish come true,” says Curtis Sutton, CEO of Rackley Roofing & Rackley W.A.R. “This was a perfect opportunity with our new partnership with Nashville Superspeedway and our newly formed race team. We are excited to spend some time with Braseon and Tyree.”

Both Braeson and Tyree are fighting different forms of cancer and, when asked what they wanted their wish to be, both wished to be race car drivers. Both of their families will also receive tickets to the Tennesee Lottery 250 Xfinity Series race which will take place on Saturday, June 19.

“We are thrilled to see two wish kids come up with such a creative wish that gives us the opportunity to work with these great organizations in our community,” says Beth Torres, President & CEO of Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee. “We are so grateful to Nashville Superspeedway and Rackley Roofing for helping make Braeson and Tyree’s wishes come true.”

This dream come true for Braeson and Tyree comes at the heels of Nascar weekend in Nashville including the first Cup Series races in 37 years. The two young racing fans will be in the thick of the racing activities prior to the historic racing weekend.

“We are thrilled that our inaugural NASCAR Cup Series race weekend provides us with the opportunity to help grant these wishes for two very special little boys,” says Erik Moses, Nashville Superspeedway’s president. “The incredible work Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee does in creating hope through providing memorable experiences is as important for the families as it is for the children. We look forward to hosting Braeson and Tyree at the track during our Nascar triple-header weekend.”
