Well we’re barely in to 2012 and already I’m a part of a real life race team!
My Race Team is a community based team that will be entering a car in this seasons Aussie Racing Car Series starting at the Clipsal 500. The idea is everyone pays a small membership fee to be a part of the team, and all the money from the memberships go towards funding the team for the year. Every member gets a vote in what happens within the team, be it voting for the body shell, car paint job design, or even the driver for the season.
No more then 5 minutes after hearing about the team, I was a member! I joined the team with the aim of being voted in as the team’s driver for this season. But even if I’m not voted in as the team’s driver, it’s still going to be a great experience to be a part of a real world team spending time up close and personal with the car at whichever race meetings I can attend.
It’s a brilliant idea, and if you’ve ever wanted to be a part of a race team make sure you check out the website for all the info you need. There’s still plenty of memberships available for this season, but get in quick as they’re going fast!
