Happy 4th of July!

Yea I know I am a day late but I have been under the weather lately. I am still trying to find sponsors and burning the midnight oil trying to figure out how I can continue.

Fundraiser in Columbus

Hey there, I just finished a fundraiser in Columbus Ohio at a bar called Exile. If you are ever visiting this area check it out! It has a great mix of people in it and the bar was obviously just renovated. It looks like they have alot of improvements to come as well. I am going to Mid Ohio this weekend (I am actually here now) to network and keep my face fresh with the series. Still trying on the sponsor stuff. My agent, Elliot Rozenberg is working on some ideas to approach companies and I have great hope that we can do something. Thats all for now...

June update

Hey all, pick up a copy of Sports Out Loud...great magazine and article on racing! I am very happy with the publication and quality, truly a world class sports magazine!

Well June is upon us and it is killing me to see all these nice races on the schedule and not be able to show my stuff. I am going to Ohio for a possible fundraiser and go to the track to mingle. It is the most difficult thing in the world for a racer to do...go to a race and watch. I see all the people I race with and watch them progress thru thier careers as I wait for sponsorship. Help? This next race is going to be a great one as it is televised and we are the premier race for the weekend. If anyone is in the Mid-Ohio area (Steam Corners) please look me up! Lots of fun and great atmosphere at these events! It is fun seeing Patrick Dempsey and others mingling around and racing. I will post more info on the fundraisers soon as soon as I get scheduling together. My agent Elliot Rozenberg is working on sponsorships as well and any inquiries can go to elliot@edarlingenterprises.com.

Thanks for reading!

Back from Lime Rock

Well that was pretty bad. I was not in the car at Lime Rock this past weekend. We had 2 new drivers in the car and they were inexperienced in front wheel drive cars. One of the drivers tested with us at a couple of tracks and is coming up to speed pretty well but the other driver had no experience. We were off pace during the race and got taken out by another car lapping us. Oh well I am not sure of when I will race next so keep tuned and I will update.

Thanks

Doesn't look good

Well I really tried and I do not have enough funds to make Lime Rock. This is an expensive sport that I am trying to excel in but with no corporate support it will not happen. I put it all out on the line for our community and thought I was doing something good, but I guess I was too early to try this approach. I will continue to try but I doubt I will make many races with no support. I am going to keep approaching corporations and will keep you all informed. Thank you to all that have helped and supported me to this point. I do have an entry fee already paid for Lime Rock (thanks everyone from Faultline!) and I can transfer it to a future race. The travel expenses and funds needed to operate the car are just too much. Well its back to work for me and thanks again for the kind words of support and private help from you!

Been a while...


Ok I have not posted much on here lately but get lots of people looking at it. Say hello or give me an opinion! We had a great fundraiser at The Faultline in LA with a great turnout of support! I would like to thank everyone involved for thier hard work and support to get me to the track. My search for a sponsor is still coming up empty and I would like some opinions on how to get some (or one big one!). I can use a private sponsor to put charities on the car or a commercial sponsor to promote thier products. It is very expensive to race and I am short for Lime Rock (race is May 23-25) and TV broadcast is May 31 at 8/11 pm. This is a great oppertunity for someone to get thier product name or charity of choice out there for the world to see and help sponsor the only active GLBT driver out there today!

I will be doing more fundraisers as the year progresses to try and make races but if sponsorship comes my way I would love to help local charities raise funds. Give it some thought and get back to me!

Testing

Well after the GTI lost its motor at Daytona, we have it together again. We are taking it to Roebling Road Raceway to test it this weekend for Lime Rock coming up. I have a new agent and we are working with a potential new sponsor for the rest of the season or a few races! I hope this works out as we really need it to continue!

I also will be doing a fundraiser at The Faultline Bar in Los Angeles on April 27 and at Charlies in Phoenix May 3. Come on out and support our cause!

More soon!
