Hi all,

My friend Stevan McAleer ( http://stevanmcaleerracing.com/) is in for a Racing Scholarship that could give him a shot at a F1 seat in a few years time. The reason for this email is that the Fee for round 1 is £7000+Vat! Crazy amount of money! To help drivers out that lack the funding, Grand Prix Shootout is allowing the top 3 drivers with the most votes on their website to get through round 1 for free. There is alot of top drivers in for this Scholarship but alot of them have major backing and can afford to pay the fees. This is where you come in!

If you can take 2 mins out of your lunch or day,

Click the link below,
http://www.driverdb.com/drivers/12146/

Enter your email address. This will send a confirmation email to you on that address.

Click the link in the email to register your vote.

PASS THIS ON TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN IN YOUR OFFICE OR ADDRESSBOOK!!!

Cheers

Chris

There are other people (some even on PH) who have far better win to start ratios. There are lots of people to choose from in this competition.

just an update


my friend stevan never made enough votes.....

however someone in america paid the £7000 for stevan to do the 1st round

out of 151 drivers, stevan is now 1 of 10 drivers that have a shot at motorsports biggest prize, see below.


The decision was very difficult.
We are pleased to announce the drivers who have been selected to take part in the Final of Grand Prix Shootout 2009.

No surprise is Chrissy Palmer, as he earned his place by winning the Formula Ford Festival Duratec Final at Brands Hatch in October.

We had to choose eight other drivers and it was so difficult that we ended up choosing nine! The standard was amazingly high and we had many so many champions taking part that it was clear there would be many surprises.


Here are the lucky ten in alphabetical order:


Elliot Burton 19 United Kingdom
KF1 karter

Gabby Chaves 16 USA/Colombia
2009 Formula BMW Americas Champion

Daniel Domit 21 Mexico
Novice

Eftihios Ellinas 17 Cyprus
