Wienerschnitzel gave control of its Temecula, California, location to their motocross partner, Joe Gibbs Racing Motocross, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., Feb. 11. Members of the JGRMX team including riders Weston Peick, Justin Barcia and Phil Nicoletti, along with team owner Coy Gibbs raised over $3,000 for two charities, United Service Organization (USO), the nation's leading organization serving the U.S. military and their families, as well as Road 2 Recovery, which provides financial assistance for motocross and Supercross members who sustain career-ending injuries, according to a company press release.

Wienerschnitzel donated 100 percent of sales from the event. The restaurant takeover took place two days before the Sixth Round Monster Energy Supercross race on Feb. 13 at Petco Park in San Diego.
