CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- NASCAR driver Joey Logano has teamed up with a local ice skating rink to help fund the U.S. Paralympic sled hockey team.

The team's sleds were in rough shape. So, Logano's charity, along with the Extreme Ice Center in Indian Trail, developed new, state-of-the-art sleds.

"It's just like a racecar, you know. You're at the shop trying to build the best equipment you can take to the track and that's the same thing we tried for them -- build them the best sled we can get out there for them," Logano said.

The U.S. sled hockey team will go for gold at the Paralympic games in Vancouver next week.
