Dec 04 - Since
our launch in September 2004 at the FIA European Finals
at Santa Pod, the project has enjoyed considerable success.
Pledges have continued to increase from dedicated fans both
in the UK and beyond, but unfortunately, as yet, we haven’t
reached our 2004 target.
This was however,
a very optimistic target and as such and because of our
level of success to date, we have taken the decision to
continue to invite pledges up until the end of February
2005. This means that we will not be asking for pledges
to be paid until February, giving our members time to
recover from the festive season.This
also allows more time for drag racing fans to take advantage
of this unique opportunity, as well as being able to pledge
in time for Christmas but without needing to pay until
2005. Remember, this is the Christmas
present for any Top Fuel Drag racing fan.
Hopefully
with coverage in publications such as Classic American
this month and Custom Car in November, we will be contacted
by others wishing to join the community. The project team
will be continuing to promote Fansfueler at future events,
such as Autosport International at the NEC, Birmingham
on the 16th and 17th of January 2005, where they will
be attending in association with Santa Pod Raceway. Barry
Sheavills and the team will be on hand to talk to drag
racing fans, existing and prospective members and look
forward to seeing you there.
We
are also in negotiation with a number of corporate partners,
which we hope will not only help us get to that all important
target, but also give you, our members, benefits from
a wider range of sponsors. |
