That's right. There's a new reality TV program in the works where fans who have never driven or competed in a race car can do so for some fabulous prizes. The series is set to start production in March of '09 at Memphis Motorsports Park 3/4 mile race track. Contestant requirements are: age 18-82, drive a stick shift, be able to climb in and out of a race car, and NO prior race car experience. This is sure to be a smash hit with the legions of race fans far and wide. This company is not affiliated with NASCAR at this time ,but will be using Nationwide Series type race cars for the competition.We need some funding to take us to the next level, which is shooting the pilot and recruiting applicants. The later should not be a problem. In fact we already have too many to deal with and have contracted with a company to screen applicants for us. We haven't even gone public yet.The producer is willing to give up 25% of ownership for an investor who brings 750k to the table. If you know of anyone interested, have them contact me at edwin_sibley@yahoo.com for more information. Once we get the pilot completed, we have sponsors already in place to make it all happen.I am going to be the track announcer for each week's episode. Applicants will be put through racing school, on track instruction, time trials and compete in a 40 lap main event. Each contestant will be graded on a points system from the time they get off the plane till time trials are concluded. The top 12 of 16 will then be in the race. Each weeks winner will be flown to Phoenix for 2 weeks for the grand finale which will be a 2 hour episode on TV and a 100 lap final race. The overall winner will receive over $250K cash, and an all expense paid trip to the '10 Daytona 500 with use of a luxury coach, limo, and VIP everything all week long.This is going to be huge folks. It's all for the fans, your fans. If you know of anyone who can help us get over the hump to the next level, please let me know immediately. This is an investment that will pay back year after year after year, as the producer and his staff are predicting at least a 10 year run. Who knows what spin offs will happen. So let me hear from you today. You or someone you know may call me at 480-399-0477 or email edwin_sibley@yahoo.com.I'll keep you posted as to our progress and application process for contestants.

This probably will be good. theres is only ONE powder puff race that I've seen the drivers of the regular classes enjoy, infact talked about it for weeks. That race was a powderpuff Figure 8. This was drivers with no experiance.

I think it will be outstanding. We are currently in need of funding for the pilot. We have everything else set in place. We have a very comptrehensive business plan as well, that includes scripts. If you know anyone who may be interested, have them email me. We are willing to sell 25% of this program for the funding.Thanks,Edwin
