Hi, Everyone!

I applied for a sponsorship with Prilosec and it's decided by votes I ask you please to take 30 seconds to vote for me just click the link below to help me out if everyone who views this does vote I will win read more about me below Thanks!

Danny's passion and why it's important to him:
I have wanted to race since as early as I can remember. I come from a family of racers it's in my blood as you will soon see. We didn't have enough to race growing up but I did race a kart here and there in High school. We were finally able to get a modified raced it in 98-99 was to expensive so we sold out and got a couple karts and raced in 2000. That was not fast enough for me so I bought a roller modified getting it ready then on April 22, 2001 I became Paralyzed from the chest down. From an ATV accident I thought life was over after a while it was killing me not being able to race so I decided to find a way to make hand controls since there was nothing out there that would work for this. Long story short in mid season 2003 I was back on track with the help of friends and sponsors. I have been racing every since then until now. My car is grounded due to lack of funding and my racing is 100% from sponsors and donations as my disability just barley pays the bills!


How sponsorship can make a difference in Danny's life:
It would make a huge difference in my life! It would allow me to be able to get out in the public more and reach others with disabilities and other life complications. Everyone see's me out there racing amazed what I have adapted to do. I get all kinds of exposure like web news, Newspapers, Radio Interviews and I have even been on the News. I have lots of fans that want me back on track!

Thanks
