Any attempt by a person to use multiple identities, fraudulent transactions, cancelled transactions, or any kind of bot or automated mechanisms to gain more entries than permitted by these Official Rules shall result in disqualification in Sponsor’s sole discretion. By participating, entrants warrant and represent that they agree to be bound by these Official Rules and the final decisions of the Sponsor. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify entrants suspected in participating in the activities defined above, or any kind of tampering with the entry process. Entry information becomes the exclusive property of Sponsor upon submission. Proof of submission of entry does not constitute proof of receipt of entry.  It is the sole responsibility of the entrant to notify the Sponsor in writing if the entrant changes his or her telephone number during the Sweepstakes. 


4. RANDOM DRAWING/ODDS:  On or about November 21, 2026, Sponsor (or an independent third-party at Sponsor’s sole discretion) will select one (1) potential winner by way of a random drawing from among all eligible entries received. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. 


5. PRIZE:  The Sweepstakes winner will receive a 2006 Street-Built Pro Formula Mazda with a 2,800 mile chassis, featuring custom wheels, DOT-approved tires, DOT-approved lighting, a fully customized exterior wrap in the winner’s choice of color and design (professionally applied prior to delivery, and the winner shall work with Sponsor to select the wrap design, color scheme, and graphics), and a Formula One-style halo safety bar included with installation optional at the winner’s discretion. Winner acknowledges that if Winner elects not to install the halo safety bar, this decision may affect Winner's ability to obtain insurance coverage or satisfy registration/equipment requirements in Winner's jurisdiction, as further described below. Alternatively, the winner may elect to receive a $50,000 USD cash prize. The vehicle and cash Prize are collectively the “Prize”, although only one (1) Prize will be awarded as set forth in this Section. The Prize will be procured, administered, and distributed by Sponsor. The total maximum retail value of each Prize is $75,000 USD for the Pro Formula Mazda, and $50,000 USD for the cash prize. The total maximum retail value of the Prize is $75,000 USD. Actual value may vary based on shipping and handling. The winner will not receive cash value or any other form of compensation. No prize transfer. No other prize substitution, except at Sponsor sole discretion due to unavailability, in which case a prize of comparable or greater value will be awarded. Winner acknowledges that insurance carriers may require installation of the halo safety bar to the vehicle prize, as a condition to insure the vehicle, and that insurance and/or equipment requirements may vary by jurisdiction. The winner is solely responsible for determining and complying with insurance and equipment requirements applicable to the winner and acceptance of the vehicle prize. All taxes (including without limitation Federal, state and local taxes) in connection with the Prize, and the reporting consequence thereof, are the sole responsibility of the winner. Winner shall sign and return an IRS W-9 form within the time period specified by Sponsor, and such winner will receive an IRS Form 1099 issued in his/her name for the actual value of prizes received if required by law. 


Sponsor has not made nor is in any manner responsible for any warranty, representation, or guarantee relative to the vehicle Prize, including but not limited to its quality, mechanical condition, or fitness for a particular purpose. THE VEHICLE PRIZE IS AWARDED "AS IS," WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Should the winner accept the Pro Formula Mazda vehicle Prize, winner shall be solely responsible for any applicable licensing, insurance, title, and registration fees and other expenses not specified herein related to the vehicle Prize. Prior to delivery of the vehicle Prize, winner must provide Sponsor with copies of a valid driver's license and proof of automobile insurance covering the vehicle Prize. If winner fails to provide such documentation within the time period specified by Sponsor, Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, withhold delivery of the vehicle Prize and issue the $50,000 USD cash alternative Prize in lieu thereof, consistent with Sponsor's rights described later in this Section. Due to the emissions and equipment specifications of the vehicle Prize, the vehicle Prize will be required to be titled and registered in the state of Montana, and may only be registrable in Montana. The winner acknowledges and agrees that he/she may be required to establish and/or maintain a Montana limited liability company and register the vehicle in the state of Montana, even if the winner resides in another state. Because the vehicle Prize may be titled to a Montana LLC, standard and personal automobile insurance may not be available, and the winner may need to obtain commercial, specialty, or LLC-titled insurance coverage, which may involve additional cost or underwriting requirements. Sponsor makes no representation or warranty regarding the legality, durability, or continued recognition of this Montana registration structure in the winner's home state or any other jurisdiction. The winner acknowledges that Montana-based titling/registration structures of this kind have been challenged, restricted, or disregarded by certain states through statutes, audits, and enforcement actions, and that the winner's state of residence may independently assess use tax, sales tax, registration fees, penalties, and interest notwithstanding the vehicle Prize's Montana title. Sponsor will provide reasonable administrative guidance regarding the Montana LLC formation and titling process, but the winner is solely responsible for all costs of, compliance with, and legal or tax consequences arising from Montana registration and any requirements of the winner's home jurisdiction, including potential retroactive tax liability. Furthermore, the vehicle Prize is a custom constructed vehicle built on a chassis originally designed for closed-course competition. The vehicle Prize may be classified as a "specially constructed vehicle" or kit-built vehicle under the motor vehicle laws of certain states, which may impose heightened requirements including without limitation: (i) specialized emissions certification (which in some states, requires inspection at a specialty testing facility rather than a standard emissions station), (ii) equipment and lighting standards applicable to non-factory built vehicles, (iii) VIN assignment or reassignment procedures, and (iv) surety bonding requirements tied to the vehicle Prize's declared value. Sponsor is not responsible for ensuring that the vehicle Prize complies with regulations in the winner's home jurisdiction, and inability to register or operate the vehicle Prize in the winner's jurisdiction shall not entitle the winner to any additional compensation, extension, or Prize substitution beyond the cash alternative Prize described in this Section. Sponsor strongly recommends that the winner consults with an independent legal or tax professional in the event the vehicle Prize is accepted.


Sponsor will provide the prize within a time period decided in its sole and absolute discretion, based on factors such as the availability of the Prize at the time of selection. Sponsor shall use reasonable efforts to coordinate the Pro Formula Mazda Prize fulfillment within a reasonable time period. Winner acknowledges that the mileage, condition, and cosmetic wrap of the vehicle Prize at the time of delivery may differ from its condition at the time of winner selection due to the fulfillment period, professional wrap installation, and any pre-delivery inspection or compliance work. At the time of the delivery of the vehicle Prize, Sponsor will furnish the winner with an odometer disclosure statement in accordance with 49 U.S.C. § 32705 and 49 CFR Part 580, to the extent applicable to the transfer of the Prize vehicle. Sponsor may elect to issue the cash alternative Prize of $50,000 USD within its sole discretion taking into account the following factors: (1) if potential winner does not respond to the Sponsor's communications or elects the Prize option within fourteen (14) days of winner verification, (2) if Sponsor determines in its sole discretion that it cannot deliver the Pro Formula Mazda Prize within a reasonable time period due to factors outside Sponsor's control, such as a force majeure event or failure of construction/manufacturing, (3) due to legal restrictions, such as potential winner not having a valid driver's license, failure to provide registration, insurance, or other documents as requested by Sponsor, (4) supply chain disruption or delivery issues, or (5) for any other logistical reason in Sponsor's sole discretion. The Pro Formula Mazda vehicle Prize is strictly limited to elements described in this Section 5. Any Prize elements not specifically described in this section may be determined by Sponsor in its sole and absolute discretion. Winner is not guaranteed or entitled to have the ability to request or demand any Prize elements that are not specifically stated in this Section 5. No additional prizes or compensation of any kind will be awarded.


6. WINNER NOTIFICATION/VERIFICATION/ADDITIONAL PRIZE RESTRICTIONS:  The potential winner will be notified by email within five (5) days following the selection of the potential winner, to verify his/her eligibility and ability to accept the Prize. If such a potential winner is not available or if there is no answer at the time any email is sent, a phone call will be made and a voice message will be left, if possible. Any such email, phone call, or voice message, will instruct the potential winner to call a specified telephone number or reply by email within fourteen (14) days (measured in the local time zone) after the time that the notification message was left. Potential winner must complete, electronically sign, and submit an Affidavit of Eligibility and IRS form W9 within fourteen (14) days of the date notice or attempted notice is sent, in order to claim his/her prize. Potential winner must reply as instructed to identify him/herself, confirm his/her eligibility and ability to accept the Prize, and provide his/her complete contact information within such time period, or he/she will be disqualified.  In Sponsor’s sole discretion, a potential winner may only be notified one time as set forth above for attempted prize notification. If the potential winner does not respond within the fourteen (14) day time period, Sponsor reserves the right to award the Prize to another potential winner by way of another random drawing. Proof of identity, age, and legal residence may be required to claim the Prize. Any winner or potential winner may be disqualified in Sponsor’s sole discretion if: (a) he/she fails to provide any required information or properly completed documents within the required time period; (b) he/she fails to comply with any of the terms of these Official Rules; or (c) if any Prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, any voicemail or email message left is not timely returned, or any forms sent to potential winner are not timely returned as instructed. In the event of disqualification of a winner or potential winner, at Sponsor’s sole discretion the Prize may be awarded to an alternate winner (or runner up) selected from among the remaining applicable eligible entries via the means of winner determination described herein, pending verification of eligibility.  All prizes will be awarded.  No responsibility is assumed by Sponsor for any incorrect or missing postal address, email address or phone number associated with an entry, or any change of address, email or phone number of entrant after entry submission. Sponsor will determine any prize details not specified in its sole discretion. Sponsor will not replace any lost, damaged or stolen prizes. Prizes are awarded as-is and without warranty of any kind, implied or express. You agree that if you are a potential winner, Sponsor may capture content including but not limited to audio, photography, or recorded video when the winner is notified that they have won the Prize and/or is accepting the Prize. Sponsor may share the audio, photos, or recorded videos for marketing purposes. The winner agrees that by accepting the Prize, the Sponsor reserves the right to use the winner’s likeness for marketing purposes without further compensation. The winner may claim the vehicle Prize at Sponsor’s facility in Los Angeles, CA, or may elect to have the vehicle Prize shipped with Sponsor’s assistance to coordinate delivery. Winner is solely responsible for any all expenses in connection with travel to claim the vehicle Prize, along with shipping of the vehicle Prize. Should the winner elect the cash Prize, the Sponsor will deliver the Prize via check, wire transfer, or electronically. The Sponsor will hold all winning entries for at least sixty (60) days following the completion of the Sweepstakes schedule.
