Fans of NASCAR Driver Dave Blaney Raise $20,000 In Sponsorship Money-Grassroots effort looks to place #23 Bill Davis Dodge on the track at Michigan: The fans of NASCAR driver Dave Blaney have had enough. Frustrated with the lack of sponsorship for their Hartford, Ohio driver, they decided to take matters into their own hands and personally raise the funds to put Blaney in another race. An offhand idea tossed out on Dave Blaney’s internet message board on Quickestlap.com quickly materialized into a very real possibility when over $11,000 was pledged in less than four hours. Word of the campaign quickly spread through the internet underground, popping up on sites like jayski.com and sending the total to over $20,000 in 24 hours. ...The fans are hoping to put the car on the track at Michigan if they can raise the $100,000 needed for sponsorship....The fans are currently accepting pledges in the Dave Blaney Forum onQuickestlap.com, but will not actually begin collecting the funds until they are nearer to their goal.
Don't get me wrong, I LIKE Dave Blaney a LOT, but why aren't sponsors taking note of his talent?
