Be part of the Biggest Sprint Car race in the country! 7/24/2006 (Grain Valley, MO) Brian Brown, one of the nations top sprint car drivers in the country with over 70 wins in his career including 8 this season is taking a unique approach to garnering a sponsor for both the 360 Nationals and the biggest sprint car race in the country, The 46th Annual Knoxville Nationals held in Knoxville, IA. As far as Brown knows this is the first time this approach has been taken to lure a sponsorship. Brown, the nephew of former World of Outlaws sprint car champion, Danny Lasoski has earned the respect of drivers and fans from all across the country and Australia. He has been racing sprint cars since he was 20 years old and continues to be a threat to win each night he pulls into the track. Brown is also involved in the promotion, Racin for a Livin where he is the 12th highest in fan voting and will be selected amongst the top 15 in votes to be part of a nationally televised reality series where the winner receives a 7 race deal in a Nascar Busch series car. The silent auction will take place beginning this Wednesday and continue through August 2nd. Bids will be accepted via e-mail at brian@brianbrowninc.com . The winning bidder will be the prime marketing partner for Brown for both the 360 and Knoxville Nationals. The winner will receive their logo in the most prominent position on the #21 Doogs Maxim, above the driver on the top wings (36” long x 16” high). They will also receive a 10 x 10 booth at the track to display products and services, 4 tickets to the each evening of racing, 6 Brian Brown t-shirts, 6 Brian Brown fitted hats, 9 x 12 autographed picture of the car with the logo’s on the wing, use of the car and Brian Brown in promotional advertising and prominent signage on www.brianbrowninc.com <http://www.brianbrowninc.com/> . “I do not know of anything that has ever been done like this.” Said Brown. “In today’s market you have to be creative and willing to be flexible in order to create a true marketing partnership. We have a great program and opportunity for a sponsor to reach millions of fans both at the live event and on Speed’s broadcast of the race. If the winning bidder has some other ideas and things they want to add to the program we are all for it and will work diligently with them to execute their program. I am confident that we can find a partner through this approach and most definitely show a positive return on their investment.” The 360 Nationals and Knoxville Nationals together have an attendance of over 150,000 during the 6 days or racing. The Knoxville Nationals will have live flag to flag coverage of the final night of competition on SPEED. The 360 Nationals takes place over 3 days from August 3-5 with the 46th annual Knoxville Nationals taking place August 9 – 12. The two events have a total purse of over $950,000. Brown who competes weekly at the historic ½ mile track is currently leading the points with 2 wins at the track this season is amongst the favorites to take home the $140,000 first place prize.
