Default Let me introduce myself.......

Most of you know me but for the one's that don't.

Name: Brian Hollis
Racing Experience: F1 / F2 / SVL/P3/P4/P5 I've won my share of races , championships.
Occupation: Self employed 30 year old family business
www.hollistransport.com
Age: 42 - Single - 5 year old son - Chase.
Hobby: Boats , any kind , especially the ones I build aka Joker PowerBoats.
Offshore Racing Experience as far as promoting / marketing:
Director of Marketing APBA Offshore LLC. Signed up major sponsors LibertyCoach.com , SpeedMonster.com, Avanna Communications and brought over $500,000 to the sport and introduced 20 new race teams to offshore powerboat racing.

Why am I promoting ORS? ( www.offshoreracingseries.com)
Because I have a deep passion for the grass roots racers. I love the spec classes , open cockpits and good ole boys! I honestly feel like I owe the sport something that gave so much to me. I've raced w/ 20+ boats in F1 and will never forget the rush. I am FOR THE RACERS , THE MANUFACTURERS AND FOR THE FANS!

Between now and next Spring I will be calling hundreds of sponsors , racers and fans and asking for advice , sponsorships and support. I will not bash anyone , spread rumors or try and hurt our sport in anyway. Don't let politeness be portrayed as weakness though. I will stand my ground , enforce the rules and make every attempt possible to make this racing series happen. In the next few weeks I will be assembling my staff. We are here to serve you and make this happen. Any advice , comments or questions can be directed to my e-mail [email protected]. I am up for the challenge folks , sit down , speak up and hold on!

Diplomat: A diplomat is a person that can tell you to go to hell in such a way that you actually look forward to the trip!

By the way, Brian has unexpectedly gone swimming from a race boat at 65 or 70 mph. He understands the risks of the sport.

Things are progressing very well. Many e-mails and phone calls! I'm listening to anybody that wants to e-mail or call me. We're working on rules as I type. I've already hired a public relations company to send out press releases as soon as we have concrete rules , etc. Thanks to everybody that has contacted me!
