I know that the glitter is a little too ???…but you get the point…it HAS to be our Christian walk (and not just talk), that is ALWAYS far, far above anything to do with motorsports…it’s a bitter pill to accept, but for a LOT of people in Christian motorsports, it’s just a way to justify spending a whole LOT of money….if I had an investor who wanted to spend money on a Christian motorsport team (or on my alternative energy invention), I would have to male sure that the benefits outweighed the cost…or why do it ? …there are much better ways to spend money…homeless, orphans, food banks, etc…not judging, just MY point of view.
The Holy Bible is the Holy word of God. It is living and is not just ink on paper.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Matthew 4:4
But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”
Luke 4:4
But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’”
Luke 11:28
But He said, “More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
John 1:1
[ The Eternal Word ] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 8:47
He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.”
Acts 10:36
The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ—He is Lord of all—
Romans 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Titus 2:5
to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed.
Hebrews 11:3
By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.
1 Peter 1:23
having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever,
1 John 2:5
But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
Yes, I have THE SOLUTION for alternative-renewable energy. Are you
interested in an investment that could be worth $100 Billion ? Not to
mention what is extremely beneficial to the world. $8 million USD for
final development for production, and my compensation is an additional
$120 million USD…
with this ONE invention the need for clean, alternative-renewable
energy will be eliminated (or at least reduce the need by 50%-80% of
more)…
there will be NO NEED to continue developing all of the “partial cures”
for energy…no need to keep building wind mills, solar panels,
electric and/or hybrid cars, etc.etc…Considering what is being spent
on these NON-SOLUTION items, current and future research, government
spending, etc…I am basically giving this invention away.

DON’T BE A MINDLESS ROBOT FOR WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING….
I am not associated with the team in the photo.
www.car-racing-sponsor.blogspot.com
Overview:
I am seeking a motorsport investor-sponsor for a Christian (bible-believing), motorsport ministry project that is barely beyond the “idea” stage.
I am doing what I can with what I have (and financially, that is almost nothing ). From a standpoint of planting “seeds” through starting (free) blogs and getting the message out…I am putting in a lot of hours. I have over 30 blogs at this time.
I am employed full-time (and usually more than full-time), and I do not have the “disposable income” to even buy a professional website. But I believe that it is very important to step out in faith, and “start from where you are.”
My Background:
My only background in motorsports was professional-level motocross (motorcycle) racing. That was many years ago, and I never had the money to match my natural and acquired skill level.
The reason that I say “only” experience is that the “lack of money issue” was always the biggest problem, and really the only problem. I have the God-given, natural, athletic talent (genetics) to be a world-champion. Not to put anyone down in paticular, but “most” race car drivers are not pro athlete material. There are a few exceptions. The statement that most drivers are not athletes, and that I have the God-given ability to be a world-champion driver are facts…not theory or speculation. (motocross is a whole different ballgame)…
My parents did not fund my motorcycle racing at any stage. If I can’t afford to race motorcycles, obviously car racing was out of the question. I was lucky to have a car to get to work.
If you are interested in investing in a motorsport team with a Christian vision, then we need to talk extensively in person.
Why do I feel that I can be a world champion driver?
First off, you must realize that without the focus on a strong Christian lifestyle and message that the project has no real purpose ( in the big picture of life ). If you are in a race, race to win.
Christians are commanded to go into all the world (society), and make disciples of men…EVEN THE SUPER-AFFLUENT WORLD OF FORMULA 1 RACING, IS STILL THE WORLD. Who is being a strong Christian witness right now in formula 1 racing ?
I also have the talent and experience in other areas that are directly related (or indirectly related to a successful motorsport team; I have (operations) business management experience (up to 70 employees), business start-up experience, class A cdl tractor-trailer driver ( I can drive the race transport if necessary), physical conditioning trainer, business budgeting/efficiency experience, trade show management experience, etc….I also now that responsibilities and tasks must be delegated. I know it’s far from being a “one man show”…
If you feel that God is pulling you in this direction and you have the funding for a 3 year budget, please contact Don @ visionn2action@yahoo.com, or leave a comment on this site. (also , at least 20% of the budget must go to direct Christian ministry purposes; Christian food bank, assisting the homeless, etc.
This Christian motorsport ministry can be directed to any area of motorsports; Formula 1, Nascar, FIA GT, Offshore Powerboats, Indy Cars, Drag Racing (cars or motorcycles), etc…determining the motorsport depends a lot on your budget and the logistics (of either international or american motorsports).
I am in the Scottsdale, Arizona area, and I am willing to relocate for the right opportunity.
If you are interested in funding a start-up motorsport team please contact Don @ visionn2action@yahoo.com
I just don’t want to compete, I need the funding to WIN. I already have the necessary natural talent and professional motocross (motorcycle) racing experience (which is much more difficult than being on 4 wheels, especially on NO racing budget).
I can be the oldest Formula 1 Champion in
history if given the same financial
opportunity as the top drivers in the
sport…( in 2011 I will be 55 ).
this will bring a lot of attention to whoever
sponsors me to accomplish this.
Much more attention than Michael
Schumacher returning to Formula 1.
All you have to do is start with a strong
foundation and with the right physical and
mental attributes…and the rest is all
financial. I have the right attributes, now
all I need is the money to back up the
vision.
Schumacher and F1’s oldest ever drivers
31 July 2009 by Keith Collantine
Has the old boy got it in him to do another victory leap?
At 40 years, seven months and 20 days, Michael Schumacher will be the oldest F1 driver to start a Grand Prix in 14 years when he makes his highly-anticipated return at Valencia next month.
But that doesn’t bring him anywhere near the record for an oldest Grand Prix starter. He’ll have to come back in 2024 if he wants to break that…
Oldest F1 race starters
Here are the ten oldest drivers to start a round of the F1 world championship:
1. Louis Chiron, 55y 9m 19d, 1955 Monaco Grand Prix
2. Philippe Etancelin, 55y 6m 8d, 1952 French Grand Prix
3. Arthur Legat, 54y 7m 20d, 1953 Belgian Grand Prix
4. Luigi Fagioli, 53y 22d, 1951 French Grand Prix
5. Adolf Brudes, 52y 9m 19d, 1952 German Grand Prix
6. Hans Stuck, 52y 8m 17d, 1953 Italian Grand Prix
7. Bill Aston, 52y 4m 5d, 1952 German Grand Prix
8. Clemente Biondetti, 52y 16d, 1950 Italian Grand Prix
9. Louis Rosier, 50y 9m, 1956 German Grand Prix
10. Rudolf Schoeller, 50y 3m 7d, 1952 German Grand Prix
Record-holder Chiron, who was born in the 19th century, did make a subsequent attempts to qualify for the further races. His last was in 1958, aged 58, again at Monaco.

My 2010-2015 motorsport budget, which will cover expenses for 5 years, is $54MM USD.I can be one of the top race car drivers in the world, “IF” given the financial opportunity…the BIG if…I can prove the point that it is money being pumped into a motorsport team, and not the athletic ability of the driver…who couldn’t win if they drove for Ferrari formula 1 ?
If you are a qualified investor, please contact Don Pentecost 480-241-2331 (Phoenix, Arizona USA)
I still have the same objective…to acquire funding for a start-up motorsport team. I know for a fact that the only thing that is keeping me from a world championship is lack of funding ….and it is a big obstacle.
HERE IS MORE INFORMATION;
Category: Goals, Plans, Hopes
I never had the money to race at a top-level (and it is very dangerous to race once a month,and especially with no practice in-between)….Honestly, I never have had a job that paid enough to have money left over at the end of the month. I could barely pay for food, rent, and a car for transportation to work….
Let’s face it. Any motorsport takes a LOT of money…it is extremely expensive for the average working-class person…in fact, completely out of the question.
Motorsports are for the wealthy members of any society. I don’t want to hear the stories about poor moonshiners and Nascar, etc..it happened once in history, and that was it. This isn’t 50 years ago, and that situation also had prison time attached to it (if caught)…That was the equivalent of being a drug pusher today and being involved in motorsports.
People who race start at an early age and their wealthy parents are the “sponsor”, that’s the bottom line.
It’s a “catch 22″…after spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on little Johnny’s racing “career” , then they might get help from a “sponsor”…
The only people in motorsports today are “rich kids”, (or older people who have their own business that is doing well financially), and most of those businesses were inherited or financially backed by their parents or wealthy spouse (not all, but most).
This might sound envious or “sour grapes”, but it is also the truth.
The best people racing today are only the most talented amoung other racers who have money…they are NOT the best drivers or have the most natural talent out of the entire population. There are thousands of people out there who could be the best driver in the world…if (and the big “if”), they had the money.
Motorsports are unqiue. It takes a LOT of money to get started, even at the lowest-level possible. You can walk into a boxing gym with a nickle to your name, and if you have great raw talent, you can work your way to the top in professional boxing. That’s why it’s a “Ghetto” sport. You can’t say that about motorsports…MONEY can actually make you a great driver.
A lot of people who have been involved in motorsports since they were children, are not pretty worthless a human beings (in their teens and as adults)…again, not all, but most. They have no concept of the real world (and a hint, it’s not a TV show). I know a lot of people who have never had to fill out a job application, or go through a job interview in their life !
You don’t compete in motorsports working at Burger King…(unless you are the CEO or own a lot of burger kings).
Usually the people who don’t know what I mean by “no concept of the real world”, are in that group.
Don’t tell me about your “real job” that you had for a couple of years, knowing that you could always fall back on your Daddy’s busness and/or money.
*** BUT, a lot of my experiences were n the past, and today is today.
I haven’t lost any of my passion for racing…even though there was a 20 year break. The only that changed during those 20 years (as far as racing is concerned), is that adding 20 years makes it physically impossble to race motocross at a top level. believe that motocross is one of the most physically demanding sports in the world (if not the toughest). But realistically, I can compete at a world-class level in ANY OTHER motorsport.
If you supply the financial funding, I will supply everything else that is required to have a winning team; Hiring the right personnel, organzing and developing the team, and personally being a driver who can win.
If the budget is really tight I can even drive the race transport (tractor-trailer). I have 48 state tractor-trailer experence working in the moving industry moving furniture (household goods). That’s 48 states in the snow, and extreme heat, or any other scenario. I used to say that it’s not a job, it’s survival…24/7, you were always working…even when you got home.
People think that some construction jobs are hard, physical work….Most of those guys wouldn’t last one 16 hour (or more) moving job. If you are moving furniture the “right way”, like it should be done, then NO JOB is harder physically than moving.
The point of all this is that no “rich kid” racer is going to intimidate me on the track or off. But, wthout the money to back up my claims, it’s just talk.
This is where YOU come nto the picture. Your funding puts my vision into action ( visionn2action@yahoo.com ) . The necessary funding is between $900K per year, and $200 Million USD (for a 5 year budget), depending on what motorsport we choose.
If you have the God-given talent (which I have), I can drive an Offshore Powerboat, or ANYTHING on 4 wheels.
Of course the first 12 months will be the “start-up” process of any busness (and also includes testing and analysis).
Let’s put this “VISION INTO ACTION”…

I understand your vision and desire, but there is so much working against you. You note that there have been many F1 drivers your age, but this was during a time when there was no young drivers. You have no experience driving a modern open wheel racing car, and it appears to be too much for Schumi right now.
My point is this. If you want to spread a much more christian lifestyle and belief system in F1, I’m all for it. One issue is that all of these drivers are either European where Christianity is dead, or they are south american where Christianity is culture instead of faith, or they are from a different faith system all together. I’m not saying its not possible, just not probable. I digress, you don’t need to be a world champion or even a driver to take Christ to them. Try to get a job with a team driving the truck, managing funds, etc. I am 24 and wish I could do the things you are saying, but I am already too old for sponsors to pick me up and get me enough funds for Indy much less F1.
Thank you for your comment. And I am not trying to “get in the last word”, but I would like to reply. I agree with you on a couple of points. You have an opinion from a 24 year old and that is fine. I will never get a sponsorship in ANY motorsport from a physical point of view (unless a Christian investor feels moved by God in that direction).
Don’t put negative thoughts in your mind about what can’t come to pass (especially at 24 years old). I am not even looking for a “traditional” sponsor because I can’t be a corporate whore for anyone. I already have turned down a full sponsorship with an offshore powerboat race team because they were heavily involved in immoral activity that I could not associate myself with.
I agree that you don’t have to be a champion driver to bring Jesus Christ to anyone, but I feel that this is what I am called to do ( maybe even continue in the line of Morgan Shepard, who is 70 and is still racing nascar…and the only thing keeping him from the top 43 every week is the lack of funds, not his age).
Anyways, I know what God has blessed me with physically, mentally and spiritually and I just want to use it to the highest level possible. I will be 55 in January and I have no problem bench pressing 350 lbs, (when I was 22 I benched 500 lbs.), I can work young guys into the ground moving furniture 12 hours a day in 110 degree heat (Phoenix, Az.)….but in the meantime, I just want to be the best witness (and example) that I can be on a day-to-day level.
I have been unemployed and homeless (homeless for a short time). 99.9% of the people that I raced against in motocross and flat-track (motorcycles) were heavily funded by their parents, and their “sponsor” was the family business, construction company, etc…if they failed in the end it really didn’t matter because they were going to take over that business one day from their dad.
You are right though, from a physical standpoint, it doesn’t happen for a low-paid, over-worked, working -class guy…..
