XR™ to sponsor “Best Appearing” at the Knoxville Nationals, Fans to Vote


Monday, July 18, 2005
By Barry Braun -- XR™ (X-Celerated), a network of racertainment websites that utilizes “blogging” technology and focuses on the racing lifestyle, has agreed to sponsor the “Best Appearing” contests at the 45th Annual Knoxville Nationals presented by Midwest Ford Dealers.

In the past, media members attending the Knoxville Nationals voted by ballot. As part of the promotion, AXR2 (www.axr2.com), will utilize its XR™ network and specifically www.sprintcarxr.com to make this a grand festivity. To top it off, the fans will tell us who is the best with an online fan vote through the XR™ Galleries, both on the Internet and at a booth set up at the Knoxville Nationals.

Prizes will also be a big factor in the contest this year as AXR2 has put $1500.00 on the line for the winner of each category.

In coming weeks, more detailed information will be released on the 2005 XR™ Best Appearing Car and Crew via www.sprintcarxr.com. Photos of past winners, historic archives from prior years, audio, streaming video, sponsors, fan prizes and more will be announced.

The XR™ (X-Celerated) line of websites (www.racexr.com) delve into the life and industry of each form of motorsports that we cover. XR features online “web-logs” known as “blogs” that are a staple ingredient in the XR™ potion. Participants are hand-selected for each XR website and their live-wire personalities are featured. All sites in the XR brand offer an unapologetic, unbiased look at the motorsports industry and are backed by a high-performance software contingent to give users an unprecedented racertainment experience. XR™ is a featured product of the AXR2 Motorsports Media Agency (www.axr2.com).
