I entered the contest last year with the photo here (taken at RPM – Race Place Motorsports in Sacramento) and plan on taking a new photo of Lily this year. We are lucky enough to have a Home Depot by our house and they are having a special event on June 19th from 10:00 – 3:00 where the #20 Home Depot car driven by Joey Logano will be making an appearance, just the car no Joey. If you happen to go to the Home Depot in Rancho Cordova, CA on June 19th they will be having a special Home Depot Kids Workshop as well from 10:00 – 3:00 where you can build the #20 Race Car and they will have Hot Dogs and Juice Boxes for the Kids. That weekend the Sprint Cup race at Infineon Raceway is taking place on Saturday June 20th so if you are in the area then that would be a great place to take a photo for your entry.
More Information About The Contest
“M&M’S® Most Colorful Fans™ of NASCAR® Contest is unique because it’s 100 percent ‘fan generated,’” said Suzanne Beaudoin, vice president, Sponsorships and Sports Marketing, Mars Chocolate North America. “Everything from the weekly winners to the lucky fan who gets to be featured in the new NASCAR Hall of Fame is decided by the boss of NASCAR – the fans!”
Each week of the contest, the votes submitted on NASCAR.COM will be tabulated and the photo with the highest average rating and the minimum number of votes will be selected as that week’s winner and receive a $500 gift card. Fans can also participate in the instant-win game with one hundred (100) fifty dollar ($50.00) gift card instant-win prizes available.
As the elite of NASCAR drivers head into The Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup™ the 14 weekly winners will compete head-to-head during the “Final Round.” At the end of the Final Round, three “Finalists” with the most fan votes will vie for the grand prize: a trip to the NASCAR Hall of Fame Museum, $10,000, and a featured display in the NASCAR Hall of FameTM for one year. The 2009 contest winner, Cynthia Peace of Havana, Ill., bested thousands of other colorful NASCAR fans who participated in the contest and became the first fan honored in the NASCAR Hall of FameTM earlier in May.
