Follow A Dream, a 501c3 non profit corporation is Mr. Blake’s answer to merging his 20-year love of drag racing with what he views as his responsibility to demonstrate through personal example, that dreams do not have to be surrendered to a life-altering or potentially catastrophic disability.

Instead of giving up, he forged ahead with his dream of racing and ultimately assembled an enthusiastic race team.
