Just when you think you have humans figured out...
There was a guy we raced karts with several years ago who thought you needed a sponsor to race so he found one! It was really quite impressive. He was a novice shifter kart racer so running no where close to the lead but had sponsorship from a beer company. I don't recall which one but he had all the gear in the sponsor colors and brought several cases of beer to hand out at the races. Of course he could have been messing with us and just been a beer distributor in his day job but if so he covered it pretty well
