Reality Racing THE ROOKIE CHALLENGE, (OTC Pink Sheets: RRGI) the newest concept in reality television, which is slated to begin airing in 2007 will hold open auditions for contestants and a host for the 1st and 2nd season of taping on November 26, 2006 at the historic Greenway Theater which is located at 544 N. Fairfax Avenue – Los Angeles 90036.
With over 15,000 applicants for the first season of taping already in process, the producers of the show feel that interest in the second season should be just as strong and hope to give as many race enthusiasts as possible the opportunity to showcase their skills and make television history via the Reality Racing platform. Two hundred hopefuls were selected for Season One but a few wildcard contestant spots are still open and contestants who out perform the rest will be considered for immediate inclusion.
Reality Racing President Lee F. Schaefer said, “Reality Racing - The Rookie Challenge combines two of the most popular on- air entertainment concepts - stockcar racing and reality television -to create an unmatched, action-packed 13-week TV series; scheduled to air
in 2007. Reality Racing, Inc. has signed professional racing legends like Bobby and Donnie Allison, Cale Yarborough, Rusty Wallace and Junior Johnson to act as judges and mentors for the show's fifteen contestants. The winner of Reality Racing - The Rookie Challenge will receive national media exposure, a cash award, a gold championship ring and the opportunity to drive in a professionally-sanctioned race.” Schaefer added, ‘The opportunity for these individuals to make their dreams come true in one of the world’s most popular sports is simply amazing and we’re proud to offer it to them.”
Interested contestants and hosts will be able to apply directly for the show at an audition which will feature principals of Reality Racing, Inc. and EFC Films, the Sierra Madre based Film Company in charge of production of the show. In addition to THE ROOKIE CHALLENGE, EFC also produces the National Sports Schedule which airs on ESPN, Fempresario: The Mom Show and the Action On Film International Film Festival.
Applicants should bring head shots or Polaroid photos and be prepared to give a thirty second speech as to why they believe they would make a great contestant or host for the show. The auditions will be held from 9am until 2pm at the historic Greenway Theater (544 N. Fairfax Avenue Los Angeles 90036) which is also the home of the world famous Melrose Trading Post.
