Hello
Introduction
My name is Harry, I have just turned 16 this year and require sponsorship to kart within the main motorsport world. I already have most of my gear but I am looking for potentially sponsors who will have a great opportunity to sponsor me whilst I race. My dream is to become an engineer in the future and karting will help me increase my skills and learning with engines.
I have wanted to kart ever since I was about 8 and never had an opportunity to kart due to my height as I had a lack of growth hormone therefore I was way to small. Starting karting and folowing my dream and passion in motorsport and vehicles would honestly mean the absolute world to me and would be unbelievably grateful!
More About Me..
In 2007 I was told I had a no growth hormone, which meant I am extremely small for my age whilst also weighing only 41kg at 16 years old. However I won't let this defeat my dream in joining the karting world or my career in motorsports!
What you as a sponsor will get
As a sponsor you will have your name or company displayed on the kart, helemt or race suit in every race. Also you will recieve weekly updates, including videos pictures and will be very welcome to attend races if you wish. Your name will be put onto my website along with all the other sponsor who will sponsor me. You will also recieve a hand written letter from myself expressing my thank you!
Karting is a rapidly growing sport throughout the whole world. Almost every race driver has started their career wih karting. Karting provides many career opportunities in engineering and of course, more advanced motorsports.
What will happen to your sponsorship?
Your sponsorship will provide a Rotax Kart, most probably a Tony Kart which is one of the best kart makes in the business. There a no other costs that will be needed other than the costs from this project on . Your sponsorship will also provide tyres and tools in order to maintain the kart.
Thank You :)
