TSN: Pass the hat for Andrew Ranger

The agent for Andrew Ranger says they need additional sponsorship in order for the Quebec racer to compete full time in the Champ Car series this year.

Alan Labrosse says they currently have enough funds for the 19 year old to take part in the season opening race in Long Beach plus the three Canadian events on the schedule - Toronto, Edmonton and Montreal.
Labrosse says they hope use this week's two-day test session in Fontana to try and attract additional sponsors.

"It's still very much a work in progress," said Labrosse. "Thus far, we have managed to put together a package for the four races, but the ultimate goal is to give Andrew an opportunity to showcase his considerable talent and be able to contend for the championship."

Currently Ranger has support from P & G Canada while Folgers, Kodak, Duracell, Kellogg Canada and Sharpie have signed on for 2006.

"I can't say enough about the tremendous support from P&G Canada and their belief in Andrew both on and off the track," said Labrosse. "They have been instrumental in bringing other sponsors on board, but we need to find more partners who share the same commitment and vision."
