Hello Potential Benefactor :
My name is Scott Kandel . I am the founder and Chief Altruistic Officer of Warthog Racing ( www.WarthogRacing.com ). Warthog Racing runs a professional Supercross/Motocross race team – the largest team in the world. We are unique in that we support professional racers called privateers that are resource disadvantaged and we work hard operating as a virtual not-for-profit to bring them resources like money and sponsors so our racers can compete to be the best in the world. We only have one paid position on staff – the race team truck driver. The dozens of others that help make Warthog Racing a reality are all volunteers, including myself and Darrell Saldana , the Race Director.
If you are a LinkedIn user, my profile will give you a quick synopsis of what I represent:

Our mission is to help deserving privateer racers live their dreams. We've been living this vision since 2003. Our program – The Warthog Racing Academy -- provides the riders motorcycle transportation, pit set-up, mechanics, gas, food, water, hospitality, and rider marketing and promotion, as well as the opportunity for riders to “graduate” to better resources teams at any time during the season. The individual riders are responsible for their own motorcycles, race entry fees, and travel expenses.
The economic turbulence of 2008 has not been kind to many of our potential riders. Although the Warthog Racing Academy has attained enough resources to fund our infrastructure for the season, many of our riders with the greatest potential have come up woefully short with the money and resources needed to make it through the season. These are excellent riders like Tyler Bowers , Sean Collier , Gavin Grayck , Michael Willard , Michael Blose , and Chris Blose plus many more. There riders do not deserve to sit on the sidelines this year – there must be a way to help them succeed and live their dreams.
This is where you come in!! You can be the personal TITLE sponsor of one of these riders in The Warthog Racing Academy. Depending on the needs of the individual riders, contribution of ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 will make a HUGE DIFFERENCE in the race careers of these riders!! Anything will help. As personal TITLE sponsor, you will have large co- TITLE sponsor decals on the rider's race motorcycles and his race uniforms, as well as have the entity of your choice get top billing in the rider's results sheets. We will also provide VIP tickets and treatment to you and a guest at two Supercross events during the 17 race Supercross season ( www.supercrossonline.com ). In a nutshell, you will be your own race team manager for the rider of your choice.
Here are some links to our 2008 season summary to give you a feel for what The Warthog Racing Academy is all about:

Que cojones es esto?
plusforty te has vuelto internacional?desfrinanos todo eso por favor para los profanos en el idioma.
jeje sorry, si que me he vuelto un poquitín raro ultimamente.
Habla el Jefe de www.WarthogRacing.com un equipo que sponsoriza privados en USA y que ayuda a mucha gente, pone los medios, camión de carreras, motos, recambios, canaliza dinero de sponsors a sus pilotos y explica que debidoa la crisis de este 2008 varios de ellos están sin blanca y con pocas posibilidades de hacer las carreras y campeonatos que se proponian hacer,
es por si algún posible sponsor lee esto que sepa que por cantidades pequeñas en relación a lo que se suele manejar (entre 5.000 y 25.000 $) cualquiera puede sponsorizar a uno o varios de sus pilotos con su logo de empresa.
Pone las maneras de contactar y resume como han sido sus campeonatos 2008.
Explica que su mision es totalmente altruista y que el unico miembro del equipo que cobra es el conductor del camión de carreras. El resto, y son docenas de personas, trabajan de manera totalmente gratis para que el equipo funcione y asista a las carreras de los campeonatos americanos, incluyendose él y el Jefe de equipo.
Me ha parecido bonito que se sepa que alguien plantea las cosas así en un mundo donde nadie piensa más que en si mismo y si bien quizás en aquí no es ahora el mejor lugar del mundo donde ir a pedir dinero, por lo menos es bueno que veamos esta óptica tan particular y desde mi punto de vista explicativa de como aman el motocross algunos de sus principales protagonistas.
Y si alguien tiene interés en el mercado USA puede llamar y le cobraran, digo informaran de inmediato. 😉
Muy interesante plusforty, gracias por compartirlo!
En parte lo he puesto porque si os molestais en abrir el primer enlace aparece en su web en la 1ª foto (por lo menos hoy 23-11-08) una Kawa con el nº 921
¿Le suena a alguien?
Esta gente organizan subastas en e-bay de ropa de pilotos conocidos que la firman y la donan para que WWR consiga fondos para ayudar a privados como nuestro Manu Rivas.
