Hi Team, the good news is we have a Kiwi in Champ Cars again with a Kiwi sponsor and it made the sports news! Quite a good item, mainly on Matt and his career, his crash in IRL Lites or whatever they call it and his love of OW and dislike for ovals.
The sponsor, 42below got a good coverage so I wrote a "thank you" to them.
Here it be,
Hi Team, congratulations and thanks for sponsoring Matt Halliday in Champ Cars! I know the racing forums are clamouring to find out about 42below and what it means for Champ Cars.
I became a fan of CART in 1997 when we got digital SKY TV and saw a race Live. I was hooked. Since then I reckon I've spent over 50 grand on my passion, watching, reading and taking my family each year to Surfers to have a fun filled family holiday. Yeah, I'm already booked for this October. :)
Without going in to too many details there is a split in OWR but I really believe Champ Cars to be the superior series and you will do well with your sponsorship. I certainly hope so! Now, all I have to do is badger SKY (again) about getting Champ Cars back on NZ TV, after all, we now have a KIWI in the series with a great sponsor!
Way to go 42below and thank you.
Russell.
Aka Kiwifan on the forums.
The bad news, called SKY TV (before this came out) and they have no plans to show Champ Cars this year. Bugger.
Anyhow, while there is life there's hope! Any other Kiwis here, get off yer Ars* and start writing to 42 and SKY. Please? ;)
Rusty.

Too bad the sponsorship is just for three races...maybe there's a limit on how much of that stuff you can drink:)

was looking for the news on the 42below website and found this
Friday March 30th
It has been scientifically proven that if we drink the recommended 1 litre of water each day, at the end of 1 year we will have absorbed more 1 kilo of Escherichia Coli Bacteria found in faeces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of waste material. However, we do not run that risk when drinking vodka as alcohol undergoes a dilstilation process of boiling, filtering and fermenting. Conclusive studies have now proven that it is far healthier to drink vodka and talk **** than to drink water and be full of it.

Hey Azza, make sure you write to SKY as well. ;) Got a great reply from Rene. Quote, HI Russell
Thanks for that. Yes we are very excited about the prospect of Champ Cars and it seemed fitting to support Matt in his endeavors. Matt is a great friend of 42Below's and we know that he will make a storm in the new series
Cheers
