PENTICTON, BRITISH COLUMBIA - Sarah Cornett-Ching is seeking the help of fans and sponsors to vote for her daily in a video contest that she has entered.  The contest is titled ‘Always a Champion’ and there will be five winners of this contest that will receive a $10,000 sponsorship from Champion Spark Plugs for the upcoming 2012 racing season, and one grand prize winner of a $50,000 sponsorship package.

 

The ‘Always a Champion’ contest began at the start of the New Year, and runs through February 5th, 2012.  You can vote once a day on the video, and by signing up to vote on the site, you will also be eligible to win free apparel from Champion.  In order to vote, simply go to www.alwaysachampion.com and register.  Once you have registered, type Sarah Cornett-Ching in the search field, click on the video and vote.  Once registered, you can also vote right from the www.sccracing.com website.

"This is a great contest that Champion has put on for us racers, and with your help we may have a chance to win one of those coveted sponsorship packages" says Cornett-Ching.  "We encourage everyone to vote for us daily between now and February 5th and leave a comment on the video. The Champion sponsorship, along with the help of our already existing sponsors for 2012 would make a great combination going into the new season."

The five finalists (one per each racing category) will be determined by a Sponsor-selected panel of judges based on the following criteria: Inspirational Quality (34%); Relevance to Theme/Best Depiction of a Champion (33%); and number of votes (33%). All eligible Contest Entries will be judged from January 16, 2012 through January 31, 2012.  While the voting doesn’t solely determine who wins the contest, the 33% is very important in determining the winner.

"We have been promoting the video contest through social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter since the voting began" adds Cornett-Ching who has utilized these sites all year long to keep sponsors and fans informed of any news throughout the year.

"We need to step it up in order to be in the running for this sponsorship when it closes in a few weeks."

Since 2005, Sarah Cornett-Ching has racked up a pile of awards, including Most Aspiring driver as well as Champion in her division that year.  Two years later, after moving up a class, she claimed the championship again.  In 2008 she claimed her first ever top five finish in the NASCAR Whelen All American Series, and the following year she finished third overall in the series points standings.  In addition to her third place in points, she also claimed awards for Most Improved driver, Most Dedicated to the Sport and West Coast Sportsman Rookie of the Year Award.  In 2010 she claimed fifth place in points in both the Okanagen Street Stock Series and the West Coast Sportsman Series.  She was also named Most Improved Driver and Most Dedicated Driver of the West Coast Sportsman Series.  In 2011, Sarah again won Most Improved Driver in the West Coast Sportsman Series, finishing fourth in points, and won Rookie of the Year, and Most Improved driver in the OK Tire ARCA West Series, finishing eighth in points.
