Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) July 28, 2005
Real estate development company Winfield Lee Investments & Development of Scottsdale, Arizona recently joined with American race car driver Peter Olson to sponsor his 'racing for children' efforts for the Christian Children's Fund ("CCF") in an exciting Formula RT/2000 race on July 16th at the famous Lime Rock Raceway in Northwest Connecticut.
Olson excelled in the race despite being injured in a massive practice crash just 48 hours before. Starting the race in 8th as a result of the crash and falling to 9th during a chaotic race start, Olson picked up five positions to finish 4th in the 35 minute race.
The Formula 2000 race weekend is part of the exciting Skip Barber Eastern Regional Championship race series.
"No guts, no glory, that's what auto racing is all about" said Olson. "I'd really like to thank the Winfield Lee Investments for making this race and my chase for the Lime Rock lap record possible. Winfield LeeÂ’s support for my 'racing for children' efforts is helping me to continue to generate valuable publicity for CCF through the unique venue of professional auto racing. I definitely expect a win next time around," said a confident Olson.
Olson is the only American driver currently competing in the prestigious 175mph China Formula Renault race series, which is watched by more than 100 million live television viewers in mainland China. The sponsor of two needy children, Olson has used auto racing to promote CCF for the past several years in his auto racing endeavors in the United States and Asia.
