The Sunnen Engine Charity Sweepstakes, one of the key features at the Performance Racing Industry Trade Show, has announced a grand total of $50,000 will be donated to Victory Junction as a result of the 2017 raffle sweepstakes efforts put on by Sunnen Products Company.

According to event organizer Bob Davis of Sunnen, $50,000 is the second highest figure on record for the 29th-annual event. A supercharged GM LSX 454 small-block racing engine, built by Nick Ferri of Patterson Elite Performance, was awarded to Ryan Anderson of Son Uva Digger Monster Truck in North Carolina.

All funds raised benefit Victory Junction, a year-round camping facility in Randleman, North Carolina, founded in 2004 by NASCAR’s Petty Family for children ages six to 16 with chronic medical conditions or serious illnesses.

“It was a great team effort, and as a result numerous seriously ill kids will be able to attend camp for a week, and during that time, enjoy life like all the other kids. On behalf of all of us at Sunnen Products Company, thanks for a job well done,” Davis said.
