I can be the oldest f-1 champion if give the financial opportunity

I can be the oldest F-1 Champion in historyJanuary 31, 2010 – 5:39 pm

I can be the oldest Formula 1 Champion in

history if given the same financial

opportunity as the top drivers in the

sport…( in 2011 I will be 55 ).

this will bring a lot of attention to whoever

sponsors me to accomplish this.

Much more attention than Michael

Schumacher returning to Formula 1.

All you have to do is start with a strong

foundation and with the right physical and

mental attributes…and the rest is all

financial. I have the right attributes, now

all I need is the money to back up the

vision.

 

Schumacher and F1’s oldest ever drivers

31 July 2009 by Keith Collantine
Has the old boy got it in him to do another victory leap? Has the old boy got it in him to do another victory leap? 

At 40 years, seven months and 20 days, Michael Schumacher will be the oldest F1 driver to start a Grand Prix in 14 years when he makes his highly-anticipated return at Valencia next month.

But that doesn’t bring him anywhere near the record for an oldest Grand Prix starter. He’ll have to come back in 2024 if he wants to break that…

Oldest F1 race starters

Here are the ten oldest drivers to start a round of the F1 world championship:

1. Louis Chiron, 55y 9m 19d, 1955 Monaco Grand Prix
2. Philippe Etancelin, 55y 6m 8d, 1952 French Grand Prix
3. Arthur Legat, 54y 7m 20d, 1953 Belgian Grand Prix
4. Luigi Fagioli, 53y 22d, 1951 French Grand Prix
5. Adolf Brudes, 52y 9m 19d, 1952 German Grand Prix
6. Hans Stuck, 52y 8m 17d, 1953 Italian Grand Prix
7. Bill Aston, 52y 4m 5d, 1952 German Grand Prix
8. Clemente Biondetti, 52y 16d, 1950 Italian Grand Prix
9. Louis Rosier, 50y 9m, 1956 German Grand Prix
10. Rudolf Schoeller, 50y 3m 7d, 1952 German Grand Prix

Record-holder Chiron, who was born in the 19th century, did make a subsequent attempts to qualify for the further races. His last was in 1958, aged 58, again at Monaco.

2010-2015 Racing Budget and my racing background

My 2010-2015 motorsport budget, which will cover expenses for 5 years, is $45 Million USD.

I can be one of the top race car drivers in the world, “IF” given the financial opportunity…the BIG if…I can prove the point that it is money being pumped into a motorsport team, and not the athletic ability of the driver…who couldn’t win if they drove for Ferrari formula 1 ?

I know, terrible photo…shot it right in the picture frame…1972 DKW 125, my first “racing” motorcycle…turned out to be a piece of junk. Of course I didn’t think that when I saw it on the showroom.

The bottom photo is 2 years later on a 1974 250cc Honda Elsinore two-stroke..(but I only had about 4-5 races on that DKW in the 125 class (never got out of the novice class)…it’s hard to win when the bike won’t shift, and you can’t afford a “shift kit”.

As soon as I got a bike that actually would shift, and had enough power to win…I easily won my first novice race, and they (CMC) immediately moved me to the 250 Intermediate class (and I won my first race in that class).

CMC moved me to the “expert” (pro class)…in that class with a box stock 250 elsinore and little to no practice, it was really tough. I was only able to race about once every month (or sometimes less), because my parents were NOT paying the bills for me to race…and I was only doing minimum wage work at 17-21 years old.

I did beat “name” racers (once) like Eirstedt, Billy Henderson, and Jeff Jennings. It was also extremely dangerous for me to race then (looking back on it now). I couldn’t afford decent protective gear except for a helmet. I had gloves, and lace up construction boots. No chest or shoulder protectors, no “leathers” ( I wore levi jeans). No one had neck protection.

One time I damaged my regular boots in practice and I lost my racing jersey, so I raced the pro class at Escape Country in southern California in a button-up Hawaiian shirt, and van tennis shoes…of course everyone was looking at me like I was a freak. I never claimed to be a “conformist”.

Are drivers real athletes ? Not in my opinion

Who couldn’t win driving the best cars ?

Read my”controversial” comment at the bottom of this page

You probably know by now that 7-time Formula 1 World Champion Michael Schumacher is returning to the sport he loves, coming out of retirement to drive for the Mercedes GP-Petronas F1 team and reunite with Ross Brawn, the man who has been such a vital part of Schumacher’s career. Here, Schumacher’s shown at Jerez, in Spain, where he test drove a GP2 car for 52 laps yesterday…all part of the process to help bring the talented German up to speed again, and to help him get used to the forces on the head and neck that only a Formula 1 car can produce.

So here’s the burning question: At 41, is Michael Schumacher too old to do well in F1?

The statement above is from a Road & Track article…my question is, why wouldn’t he win at 41 years old, or 51 years old ? It’s not like Formula 1 racing (or any motorsport other than motocross) is on an athletic comparison with swimming, running or motocross.

Let’s not over-estimate the drivers athletic ability compared to what it really takes to win in motorsports; a ton of money, a well-organized team (which also takes a ton of money)…whoever has the most money to spend will find the most talented employees…that’s the bottom line. It also takes superior technology, which takes a ton of money.

If Morgan Shepard (long time Nascar competitor) had the right financial backing he would be running with the big name drivers, and he’s 70 years old ! That should tell you something.

Connection between Christianity and Motorsports

To answer this question as easily as possible…Sports Entertainment is excellent exposure for a positive Christian image…and it also shows that Christian are involved in activities that are fun and exciting…

If you have been blessed by God financially and you feel that God is leading you to get involved in a dedicated Christian Motorsports Ministry, (in which we actually race), then please contact me; donsministry.info@gmail.com

In case you do not already know, motorsports are extremely expensive. The budget figures below are as cost-effective as possible while still being competitive.

The three-year budget for a Nascar team would be $57 million USD…or it breaks down to $19 million per year. This includes not only racing in Nascar and the Christian Motorsports Ministry, but also all of the other associated ministries for a 3 year period;

Childrens/Orphans Ministry, Prison & Hospital Ministry, Homesless & Food bank Ministry, Local Church Planting, Support for Israel & Messianic Jewish Ministry, Interstate Billboard Ministry, Senior Ministry and Home Visitations, and more…

The three year budget for (International) Formula One racing would be $120MM USD, ( The first year is not spent jumping into the formula one race schedule…There is an incredible amount of time and money involved in the “behind the scenes” start-up and R & D functions, combined with the logistics planning ( transporting equipment and personnel worldwide ), and many other areas.

I would also like to get the ministry areas going as soon as possible (during the first year). There is almost a 50/50 split between the cost of the race team, and the actual ministry costs. All funds will be put into two seperate trust funds; one for the Ministries, and one for the motorsports team.

Depending on your budget and personal interests, all other motorsports are negotiable; (car) drag racing, drag bikes, sprint cars, closed circuit off-road trucks, indy cars, offshore powerboats, etc….

One big difference that you should know about this Christian Motorsport Ministry is that I will be a driver and not just a chaplain…I am not an “ordained” minister, and I do not have a degree in theology…or any four year college degree. The driver position (and calling) is non-negotiable.

I am going on faith that God is leading me in this direction. My racing background is professional class motocross ( motorcycle ) racing.

I admit it’s been a long time since I have raced, but I also believe that God has blessed me with natural born racing talent, ( unfortunately I have never had the money to back that talent, or the connections…

I got very “sidetracked” in life and don’t blame anyone. ( even though for 25 years I blamed a lot of people and circumstances ). Anyone who invests in this Christian Motorsports Ministry must agree that the primary focus is Christian Ministry…Christian witness through a different lifestyle than the “world” (society).

Think big….pray big ! God is Big ! As children of almighty God we can expect extreme blessings if we have faith and believe that it will come to pass, before we can actually see it happen. Is there anything too difficult for God ? I personally believe that with God ALL things are possible ! Mark 10:27 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”

Read the article below and then please read my statement concerning Christian Motorsports….It’s time that a Christian team jumps to the front of a motorsports project, and not bringing up the rear…if they are able to be racing at all !

Mystery Company buys BMW Sauber Formula 1 Team” BMW as announced that “Qadbak Investments Ltd” has agreed to purchase the BMW Sauber F1 team. The company will be represented in the team by a Swiss person called Lionel Fischer. This tells us very little except that whoever is buying the team does not want us to know who they are. The fact that the name of the company includes “Ltd” suggests that it is probably registered in one of the Caribbean tax havens, such as the British Virgin Islands, Bahamas or perhaps even the Channel Islands. Swiss trusts can be covered by the laws of any jurisdiction but are simply managed by a Swiss trustee. If there is no Swiss resident benefiting from the trust there is no Swiss tax although each of the 26 Swiss cantons have taxations schemes of their own, the cheapest usually being Zug. The main reason for establishing a corporate foundation is to preserve the assets of private individuals. Many corporate foundations exist only to increase the size of assets being held. BMW says that Qadbak represents “the interests of certain Middle East and European based families” but they clearly do not want people knowing who they are. What we do know is that Qadbak was involved in the purchase of the Notts County soccer club in England. In that case, Qadbak created a British Virgin Islands company called Munto to acquire the soccer team. This appointed Peter Willett as the chairman. He is a key player in Al Thani Investment Group, which is an oil-rich investment company based in Dubai and headed by Abdullah bin Saeed al Thani. The Al-Thani family is also the royal house of Qatar. However, while one can speculate that Qadbak is a Qatari-dominated company, it is worth noting that the name is probably an acronym for the entire region: one can speculate that QADBAK stands for Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Bahrain and Kuwait. There is no doubt, however, that as an independent automobile company, answering to its shareholders, BMW needs to be quite sure that any deal is done with the right kind of people who have the kind of money that is needed. The Middle East has big ambitions in the automotive world as has been seen in the recent Daimler/Aabar and Porsche/Qatar deals.

After reading articles like the one above, Isn’t it time that a Christian-based Motorsport Investment Group lead the way in motorsports racing worldwide…Christian ministries are on television 24/7, and “Marketing” exposure in motorsports is much more cost-effective than television is…and without the censorship of Christians by network television executives…I am praying and asking God to provide $80-120 million USD which covers the first three years of the motorsports team and a nationwide/worldwide Christian ministry. Formula One racing is International.

“If we are going to do this for the Lord, then it needs to be done right” Doing it right is not spending a lot of money to “bring up the rear” of the pack when racing, or not qualify time after time. We must be in it to win or not be involved at all.

2 Corinthians 6:14 ” Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers” (and this includes marriage, business, ministry, and motorsport partnerships).

My plan has great return on investment

MOTORSPORT NEWS BREAK

December 29, 2009 – 4:48 pm

Don Pentecost issues an (Investment) challenge.

” I don’t see anyone on the internet who is saying that they can be great in motorsports if given the financial opportunity…they either have money to be involved in some form of racing or they give up.

There is a reason why they don’t make any of these claims, because they really don’t think they can. If you investment in me it is a gamble…you are either going to get a world champion, or you are going to get a flop. I guarantee there will be nothing in-between.

You are not going to get a “cookie cutter” racer, like what the world of motorsports is filled with. (the definition of a cookie cutter racer is wealthy parents, non-athletes, and no real world working or life experiences. There are no working-class heroes in motorsports today. It is big business with mostly corporate whores doing the driving.

There are very, very few real athletes in any motorsport (other than motocross ). You can call this challenge anything that you would like to; “sour grapes”, jealousy, envy, etc.etc..but the fact still remains that I am the primary person claims that they can ” be a champion racer if given the financial opportunity “.

Enough of the talk. It’s time for someone to take the “gamble” and invest in my future motorsport team. It’s time to put the vision into action.

To repeat the profit potential for this investment opportunity; The unique aspect of this motorsport investment is that the primary function is net profit for the investor…it is NOT marketing of your brand, or an advertising tax deduction.

Our guaranteed return on investment is 25% annually (for the first investor only), and the minimum amount is $25mm USD. This first investor for the start-up will be locked in at 25% annual ROI. The next two investors (at $15mm USD), will be guaranteed an annual return of 22%. The next (4) investors (at $8 mm USD ( will be guaranteed a return on investment of 20%), and so forth.

This is NOT a stock market investment. It is a motorsport investment, and it is NOT “multi-level marketing” because the investors at the lower-level of investments, will only be recruited for brand marketing once the team is successful (that will be their payoff).

In other words, only the lower-level investors will have the name (logo) on the race car, tractor-trailer, marketing apparel, etc. No one loses. (there is a very small degree of risk with any investment, including this unique motorsport investment).

Any other monetary profit derived from this motorsport team will be equally divided between the team and the investors (prize money, other endorsements, technology patents, etc).

From the original investment of $25mm, the investor pool will be over $150mm within 3 years. The best method of big profits in motorsports ! (and it’s not going with the current crop of “established” drivers or teams). This has nothing to do with brand marketing, clean shaven, pretty boy, rich kid drivers, etc…I don’t care what you product is…the only decal, painted logo on the car will be our website for investors, and future investors.

TO REPEAT THE POTENTIAL FOR GREAT RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT. This is very unique…every other motorsport revolves around marketing your “brand” for potential profits…which for most investors is a losing proposition !
