Just to give everyone plenty of time to get ready for the annual Laurel Mall race car show, the tentative dates for the show are March 3-7, 2010.
We look forward to filling the Mall, once again, with a variety of sleek racing machines from all divisions that compete at the speedway.
All the drivers and teams should take pride in their workmanship, and this is a golden opportunity to show the many hours that are spent in the winter months, prepping for the upcoming racing season.
More importantly, you should use this show as a tool...to court a potential sponsor, or even help seal a sponsor deal.
HELPFUL HINTS:
-Tell them(potential sponsor), that your car will be in the Mall all week long, for thousands of race fans to see-up close.
-Make sure the cars are neat, and the sponsor lettering and logos are clearly visible. If you can't handle it yourself, find someone who can assist you with the graphics design. There are several racers who either do graphics or have someone who does their cars now. Check with them.
-Be around as much as possible during the week of the show...You never know who may be walking through the mall, and is attracted to your race car. Maybe your next sponsor??? (...the one who pays the bills!)
-Look presentable. Wear a collared race team shirt (no, not your fire suit) and have handouts such as hero cards or candy. You can also hand out sponsor literature...but, be sure that your race car is on it somewhere, so folks can relate or remember where they got it.
-Take the time to explain to the fans, the differences between your race car...and what they drive.
NOW...GIT R DONE!!!
