Sponsorship time!

Just a reminder to all of you racers out there that this is the time of year that companies start accepting sponsorship proposals/resumes. Check your favorite company's web site for information on how to apply; many more are doing this online now, so pay attention and follow their instructions to the letter if you want to be considered.

Good luck!

Draft a well-written, brief resume; have a good cover letter; and do a short proposal outlining what you are prepared to do for the company. Have someone whose opinion you trust proofread it for you. If you can e-mail it, send it in PDF format.
