Default Focus Challenge in Focus Fanatic

I dont know if anyone else has already posted about this, but there is a short write up on the February Focus Challenge event (and on the FC in general) in this latest issue of Focus Fanatic.

I was suprised even further to see a pic of my car! LOL

Im hoping that Focus Fanatic will cover each of the Focus Challenge events in 2005. Magazine coverage of the series will go a LONG way to helping the series secure corporate sponsorship. I figure one full page in each issue would do the trick. Who do we need to speak to at Primedia to see if this is even a remote possibility?

I'd get in touch with Steve Turner, the editor.

Who from the Focus Challenge wants to contact them?

With Focus Fanatic being published quarterly next year, it will be easy for them to cover each of the Focus Challenge events. Once we receive our weekend schedules of tracks for Redline, then we can better plan the Focus Challenge and notify the magazine of the FC schedule.

Don't call ad slime Todd.

Why not let Nik take care of this, being that he's hosting the events.
He has a lot vested in the FC, I think we'd do well to let him speak for the group.

Todd,

Let me know if you object, but Im going to take Kristina's advice and call the appropriate individual at Focus Fanatic regarding the Focus Challenge.

As the host of the Focus Challenge I will be able to answer any questions if they come up (which Im sure they will).

Yeah, John did a great job on the article! Its just a shame the weather was so horrible at that event and not conducive to high quality photography.
