Four
Sponsors Secure Funnybike Honors
Group agrees to share class sponsorship
and TV rights.
Was
it the fact the Funnybike class was on the chopping block several
years ago, and the risk of the machines being mothballed that brought
a new excitement and energy to the class? Who knows, but the excitement
is at a peak this year, and it does'nt look like it's going to stop.
In 2004, Weismann Racing Transmissions, PMFR, Pro 1 and Robinson
Industries each wanted a share of the class name and collectively
needed to come to terms in order to share the rights. With newer
racers like Travis Davis, devouring the competition with obnoxious
alcohol and turbo powered machines, the Funnybike Series is no-doubt
going to create some of TV's finest moments, and sponsors were quick
to want their name associated with the action.
Prostar will create and distribute Funnybike class sponsor decals
to the Funnybike competitors. Each sponsor has agreed and will get
exclusive class sponsor recognition at two of the eight national
events for television purposes, Example: the Weismann Transmission
Funnybike Series or PMFR Funnybike Series, etc, will become the
class name for a particular event. This will allow equal TV time
and visibility for each sponsor.
In addition to the event prize money, the joint sponsorship brings
a cash bonus to the Funnybike class.
Class bonus will pay:
Year end No. 1 Plate Bonus $2,000
Year end No. 2 Plate Bonus $ 800
Year end No. 3 Plate Bonus $ 500
Year end No. 4 Plate Bonus $ 400
Year end No. 5 Plate Bonus $ 300
