Ty Dillon is going ‘Over the Edge’ on Thursday, May 8, at the Embassy Suites in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he will rappel 10 stories down. The annual ‘Over the Edge’ event supports the NASCAR Hall of Fame Foundation and its scholarship program to ensure children in the community are given the chance to visit the Hall of Fame without having to worry about any financial barrier. The education program at the NASCAR Hall of Fame serves more than 21,000+ students annually and serves as an extension of classroom learning with hands-on, problem-based interactive lesson plans that adhere to state and national learning standards. During last school year, the foundation provided more than 8,000 students with scholarship assistance.
Donations can be made at charlotteovertheedge.org. A $20 donation helps one child visit the Hall of Fame and participate in its educational programs.
Fans are welcome to join in the ‘Over the Edge’ fun at the NASCAR Hall of Fame Plaza where a live DJ will be on-site all day; food trucks from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. ET and games are available for a small donation. Dillon will rappel at 11:45 a.m. ET.

“This week at Kansas Speedway we are focused on building off of the success of last weekend at Texas. We were really strong, and each week we just try to add another five percent more to our program to try to get a little bit better and turn that top 12 into a top eight or top five. And when you are running in the top 10 in the Cup Series, you have a chance to win. So, we’re knocking on that door. Both AJ (Allmendinger) and I have had great runs week in and week out. We’re trying to fine tune and find a little bit more speed each week and give ourselves a shot at victory lane.”
