BEST Track Sought by RfA

You do not have to be a member to vote! Racing for America, Inc. Seeks The Very Best Race Track in America Cleveland, OH- Racing for America, Inc. wants to know what motorsports track is The Very Best racing venue in the United States and to find out the organization is conducting an on-line fan poll to rate American tracks on ten different items covering everything from racing action to restrooms. "The great part about this poll is that it is all about quality not quantity, so local tracks, like Lorain County Speedway, right here in Ohio, actually have an advantage over the big boys like Daytona or IMS [Indianapolis Motor Speedway], because of the tight bond they have with their local fan base," said Jim O’Bryan, RfA President. "We want race fans to tell us which track serves the best bratwurst, who's got the friendliest staff and what is the best ticket value in the country – and these are things that happen every Saturday night in America, not just once or twice a year on holidays," said O’Bryan. Fans may vote on line at <http://www.racingforamerica.org/>www.racingforamerica.org. Special recognition and RfA Awards will be presented not only to the top rated tracks in the nation, but the top rated tracks in each state as well. The RfA Get Out the Vote Campaign is an initiative to promote fan support for motorsports racing and increase spectator turnout at the 1200+ local race tracks throughout the United States. Plans call for the track recognition program to become an annual event with increasing media exposure and award value in the future through the involvement of corporate sponsorship. "The future stars of NASCAR, IRL, CART, NHRA and Formula One are out there right now on dragstrips and dirt ovals all across this country," said O’Bryan, "And they deserve every bit as much support as our nation's Olympic athletes so the country that invented and defined the modern automobile is fielding the most competitive drivers all around the world." Founded in 1984, Racing for America, Inc., is a motorsports group dedicated to the advancement of American auto racing interests by serving two core constituencies: Racing Fans – whatever their flavor of racing is whether Dragsters, Sprints/Midgets/WoOs, Indy/Champ Cars, Sports Cars, Motorcycles or Stock Cars/Trucks, – and Racing Talent -- wherever it is found in the racing industry, including Drivers, Mechanics, Track Management, Sponsors, Manufacturing, Promotion, Media, Marketing, Graphic Arts and more, with programs such as internships, scholarships and placement services.

I can assure you as the operator of 20+ websites, I understand not only the evil concpet of spaming but recogonize just how bad it is for not only the newsgroup, but the spammer with negativity. I am a gamer, and involved in racing. I think there is a natural crossover between race gammers and race fans. RfA is interested in the opinions of ALL race fans, live or virtual. I will respect whatever decision the moderators of this newsgroup tell me for the content of my messages. Only trying to make racing better. Thanks for the note.

Marc The link works, the voting is under the "racin" section. We were hoping fans would look around a little bit. The site is a bit rough, we are working out the bugs for the formal kick off in 2004. We are only a bunch of race fans working together to sponsor American drivers. Since 1984 RfA drivers have won races in British F3, Formula Opel, F3000, Formula Atlantic, Indy Lights, Formula Ford, and have gone on to compete in CART, IRL, NASCAR, and other series. Recently RfA driver Paul Dallenbach won the 2004 Pikes Peak Hillclimb. Check the top patch on the left side. Not bad, for being not too sharp. We have just landed a pretty good sponsor, and the new program will be announced in October, with over $250,000 up for grabs to drivers, fans, interns, and sim racers. The larger budget will help us fix some of the bugs in the website, and other areas. Racing for America, is non-profit, fan run, owned and operated. We are dedicated to making racing more enjoyable. I hope if you find any other problems with our site, program, or postings you will send me a copy so that we can address the problem as quickly as possible. I'll admit, sometimes we are not that sharp, but we are always willing to try better. Thanks for the input. Stop by again, I promise it will be better.
