Contract that driver and put some of the purse back to the fund, rinse and repeat. I think it could be doable .
Perhaps a driver with a GoFundme Page (or smthn of the like) would be best...they could take the raised amount to a team. I know many look down on those types of efforts, but it may be more fruitful of an effort than the driver going from boardroom to boardroom sponsor hunting...it's hard saying...
If anything, maybe there will be some Jarrett Andretti T-shirts around this program, and hopefully those are scooped up...
