Hendrick Motors donates to Children's Attention Home in Rock Hill.

    
      For the second year in a row, the employees of Hendrick Motors of Charlotte decided they wanted to help those less fortunate in our community.
     The team wanted to do something related to gifts for children who would otherwise go without. We were directed to The Children’s Attention Home ( http://www.attentionhome.org/ ) in Rock Hill, SC.
     The Children’s Attention Home is a private, non-profit emergency shelter for abandoned, neglected, and abused children ages infant to 18.
     When we contacted the home to see what they needed we were really surprised at what they said. It was not presents or gifts that were needed by these kids- it was the sheer basic necessities of life that they needed- everything from toothbrushes to flour to cough medicine to socks. They explained that most times these kids arrive at the home in the middle of the night, scared and with nothing more than the pajamas on their back.


     Our team responded in true Hendrick fashion and went to work with a purpose and a mission. We challenged ourselves to completely fill a Mercedes Sprinter Cargo Van and deliver the supplies to the Children’s Home. We accomplished our goal and then our teammates at Hendrick BMW stepped in and completely filled another Mercedes Benz Sprinter Cargo Van! Together our teammates supplied over $10,000 worth of supplies and an additional $700 in cash.
     We are very grateful to work for such a fantastic organization that provides us employees and our families the opportunity to be able to help others- especially the wonderful people at the Children’s Attention Home.

New SLS GT3 Victory

The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 has finally matured into a winning car at the ADAC GT Masters – in its first year of racing! At EuroSpeedway Lausitz, where the 11th and 12th races of the season were held, the gullwing once again took its place on the roster of winners.


In the first race of the weekend, four of the nine starting Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3s finished in the top ten: the best drivers were Lance David Arnold and Andreas Zuber (Primajob Team Heico) in fifth place.

Sunday's result was even more impressive: In front of 16,500 spectators, two client teams made it onto the winners’ rostrum. Leading the pack were Thomas Jäger and Florian Stoll (MS Racing), who were the first to pass the checkered flag, after 33 captivating laps, in one of the most exciting races of the season.

Their victory was decided during the mandatory pit stop: Jäger delayed to enter the paddock a lap later than the previously leading Ferrari team, recouping a second during the lap – enough time to keep his lead after the pit stop. Florian Stoll fought off all challenges until the end of the race to secure the second victory for an SLS AMG GT3 in the ADAC GT Masters, with a 1.2-second lead.
