Sussex, WI – (May 5, 2007) Organizers of the Red Flag Fund announced they will hold the fund’s inaugural charity auction July 7, 2007, at Road America in Elkhart Lake, WI, to benefit seriously injured motorcycle roadracers.

The Red Flag Fund Auction will begin at 7 PM on Saturday, July 7, in the Buell Motorcycle Company hospitality tent located in Road America’s competition paddock.
