Thank you in advance,

Knell Racing,

Cameron Knell #57

In this letter you will find this is a great opportunity for you and your business to invest in the next Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, or maybe Jimmy Johnson.

Cameron Knell is well on his way to becoming one of the hottest prospects in racing. His resume is second to none at the age of thirteen. Cameron started racing at the young age of five years old. Cameron has a large amount of experience, as well as a winning record and multiple championships. Cameron is fluent on dirt, asphalt, and concrete race tracks. With over 115 wins, 350 top three finishes, and less than 15 races he did not finish due to crashes or mechanical failure within his eight year career puts cameron Knell as one of the best oppertunities in racing. Knell Racing has been contacted by a scout which is currently watching Cameron for the future,  if things go right his hopes are to take Cameron further towards his dream of NASCAR.

To keep these people watching and also to further Cameron’s experience, Knell racing is looking to run more races outside our normal area, unfortunately this will cost more money. Knell Racing is sending out this letter to select businesses in hopes of coming up with the sponsorship to run several weekends outside of our normal area within the National Micro Sprint series, POWRI Outlaw series, and the UMARA Sportsman Midget series.

I have my racing history, sponsorship letter, and Racing demographics on the next pages.  

Cameron Knell started racing quarter midgets at the age of five with ALQMA in the Junior Novice class of The Quarter Midgets of America. Cameron then moved up to the Jr. Honda class at the age of six and a half, and later that year added the Jr. Super Stock class to his repertoire. When Cameron turned eight, he added the Light 160 class, making his race days quite busy, but he got a ton of seat time. He was able to race with kids from the age of six in the Jr. Classes, to sixteen in the Light 160 class. We feel this has really honed his driving skills. On October 18th 2005 Cameron turned nine, and for the 2006 season he started running Sr. Super Stock, and the fastest competitive class in quarter midgets, the B modified class. Cameron accrued over 100 wins and more than 300 top three finishes during his Quarter Midget carreer. 

In 2007 Cameron moved up to 600 Micro Sprint. In his first season with the 600 micro, Cameron found his way to the winners circle 10 times. The season was a real nail biter, he finished out the season strong moving up to third place in points out of 28 cars. Cameron had the most points of any first year driver within the 600 micro sprint classes, making Cameron Knell rookie of the year for 2007. Cameron went to the most prestigious race in the country at the end of the 2007 season the Tulsa Shootout, this is the race that the best of the best from all over the world come to race. Cameron was the fastest car in his class for hot laps and through the heat races, he won his heat race by a full straight away to advance directly into the A-Main. Cameron started eighth and was passing for fourth on the fourth lap of the A-Main when the car he was overtaking took them both out of the race. 

In the 2008 season Cameron was involved in an accident while passing for the win in one of his first points races, this in turn took Cameron back to 11^th in points which forced him to spend the entire year playing catch up. Hoping to win the championship, Cameron came up short by one position taking second in the 2008 points championship. The end of august 2008 Cameron switched to the new Runaway Chassis, this is truly the best chassis money can buy! As of September of 2008 Cameron has more than 350 top three finishes, with 115 of those finishes being 1st place finishes. Six of these wins were in the new Runaway Chassis, in the first five race weeks running it. Going into the last point’s race of 2008, Cameron was locked in second place so we decided it was time to move up to the big time to the toughest class to drive NON WING!!!! Cameron’s first week out placed second in first heat, second in the second heat, and Cameron won the A-Main. This is unheard of for the first time running Non Wing. The second week out Cameron won the first heat and won the A-Main! We are off to a great start in non wing. Two A-Main starts with Two A-Main wins.

In 2009 Cameron Knell at the age of twelve became the Youngest Non Wing National Champion in the history of the National Modified Midget Association. As a result Cameron received partial sponsorship to move up to the Sportsman Midget division of the UMARA for 2010.

We are looking for sponsorship to offset as much as possible of our National Micro Sprint racing series as well as the UMARA Sportsman Midget Each national race comes out to an average of $700.00 to 1000.00 per event for the 2010 series, not counting the few multi day national races like the Tulsa Shootout. The national races have large attendance in spectators, anywhere from hundreds of people in the stands, to ten thousand people in the stands.

Any sponsor that helps out will get their name or business name and logo's on web site, the race car and the 30' race trailer. we will also supply you with pictures of the car and driver for you to display in your business, or anywhere you would like. With certain sponsorship packages we offer the car driver and crew at your location for autograph sessions and publicity appearances.

Any Sponsorship you can offer will help Cameron towards his goals of NASCAR in the future; of course the more you can contribute the further it could take him.
