USFRA thanks The Ohio State University and Ford for pioneering Alternative Fuel Vehicle MotorSports to accelerate future development of energy efficient and environmentally friendly automotive technologies. History demonstrates that testing and tuning on raceways has improved, even reinvented the petroleum powered vehicles we drive today. Likewise, by pioneering environmentally friendly MotorSports future vehicles can be made to perform even better.

Please confirm your attendance.

Speedy Environmental Regards,

TALKING POINTS:

History demonstrates that testing and tuning on raceways has improved, even reinvented the petroleum powered vehicles we drive today. The same success formula can be applied to pioneering environmentally friendly racing.

Internal Combustion Engines [ICE] are an integral part of land speed racing where non-petroleum fuels have been used primarily for performance enhancements and not for environmental or supply reasons.

Adopting AFs into automotive racing will expand the excitement of AFs becoming part of our daily lives.

Although you can find some of the world's finest auto engineers at Bonneville, its amateur status ensures that even the backyard mechanic, universities and corporate can participate on a competitive level. Bonneville is the last sanctioned amateur raceway and commands a level of respect worldwide.

Bonneville is the ultimate location in motorsports competition. Please see Anthony Hopkins movie "The Worlds Fastest Indian" to understand who we are and what we do at Bonneville.

AF at Bonneville can only expand the science, educate the racing community as well as the general public and attract the interest of the younger generation. Racing AFs at Bonneville may be the best kept secret towards American auto makers becoming the world's leader in the automotive industry once again, because racers are there for all the right reasons.

Auto racing is the most popular spectator sport in the world. Billions of people watch motorsports. Race drivers are strongly identified with their sponsors while race fans are the most brand-loyal of any sports fans.

One million dollars invested in a sports event sponsorship makes the same impression and Ten million dollars invested in traditional advertising. Race drivers are frequently featured in non-racing magazines and newspapers.

Racing is the most brutal test you can subject a vehicle to. Running at peak power for several minutes is a true test of durability, performance and efficiencies. What wins on Saturday, sells on Monday.
