Team Seattle Racing for Children’s Race car driver Don Kitch and his wife Donna founded the Team Seattle Guild in 1997 to support Seattle Children's Hospital by harnessing the energy of professional motorsports. Quickly attracting area racing enthusiasts, Team Seattle raised $80,000 by competing in the 1997 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona endurance race. Over the next 12 years, Team Seattle raced at Daytona to benefit Children's Heart Center. Team Seattle drivers Kitch, actor Patrick Dempsey and Joe Foster were invited in 2009 to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France, the oldest sports car endurance race in the world. Their participation brought worldwide attention and financial support to Children's.

59Th Primetime Emmys Winners Revealed Sopranos, 30 Rock Take Top Series Honors
59th Primetime Emmys Winners Revealed Sopranos, 30 Rock Take Top Series Honors September 16, 2007—A notorious crime family, a fictional sketch-comedy show, an iconic singer and a female British detective were among the big winners at the 59th Primetime Emmy Awards, which took place at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles and was telecast on the Fox network. Host for the ceremony was American Idol host Ryan Seacrest. Other highlights included a 30th anniversary tribute to a groundbreaking miniseries and a moving musical send-off to one of the most celebrated series in television history. Among the twenty-nine categories honored, NBC topped the list with seven wins. ABC and HBO followed closely with six winged statuettes each. Combined with their awards at last Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmys, the three networks led for the year as well: HBO earned twenty-one, NBC nineteen and ABC ten. CBS, which won one award on the night, also earned a total of ten between the two shows. The Sopranos, HBO’s acclaimed production about the travails of a New Jersey Mob boss and his intertwined biological and criminal families, took the prize for Outstanding Drama Series, and 30 Rock, NBC’s look at the backstage activity at a late-night sketch- comedy show, was named Outstanding Comedy Series. The Sopranos, the NBC special Tony Bennett: An American Classic, the AMC miniseries Broken Trail and the PBS Masterpiece Theatre production Prime Suspect: The Final Act led the recipients of multiple awards with three each. The ABC comedy Ugly Betty took two, including Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for its star, America Ferrera.

Audi MediaInfo Audi motorsport history From quattro to e-tron Audi positions itself as the sportiest manufacturer in the premium segment and has a perfect basis to do so: motorsport. Sportiness, advanced technology and emotive design are the basis for the success of the Audi brand. The genes for this have their origin in racing – since 1980. The success story began with the Audi quattro Excluding the era before the Second World War including the legendary Auto Union Grand Prix race cars in the 1930s, the motorsport history of AUDI AG began with the Audi quattro. The dominant victories and two manufacturers’ and two drivers’ titles achieved with the “original quattro” in the World Rally Championship between 1982 and 1984 were an important factor in the market success of quattro drive. quattro victorious in circuit racing as well After Audi had turned rally racing upside down and stormed up Pikes Peak (USA) with the Sport quattro in record time on three successive occasions, Audi made quattro drive fit for circuit racing as well: initially with the Audi 200 quattro and the Audi 90 quattro IMSA GTO in the United States, in 1990 and 1991 with two championship titles for the Audi V8 quattro in the German Touring Car Championship (DTM) – and ultimately also with the A4 in the production- based super touring cars. In 1996, the Audi A4 quattro won championship titles in seven countries. Between 2012 and 2016, the all-wheel drive system returned to the race track as the e-tron quattro.

Using the Adventures of a Comic Book Motorsports Hero As an Approach To
SPORT IN HISTORY, 2017 https://doi.org/10.1080/17460263.2017.1358655 Engines at top speed! Using the adventures of a comic book motorsports hero as an approach to understanding recent French history Sébastien Laffage-Cosniera, Noemi García-Arjonab and Christian Viviera aU-Sports Besançon, University of Franche-Comté, Besançon, France; bUFR STAPS Rennes, University of Rennes 2, Rennes, France ABSTRACT Jean Graton created a series of comic books called Michel Vaillant, and its motorsports hero bore the same name. Michel Vaillant made his first appearance in 1957 in the weekly Tintin. Young French boys who loved adventure, sports and car racing greeted this publication with great enthusiasm. We studied the first series of Michel Vaillant, composed of 16 comic books produced in the 1960s. We have departed from traditional approaches and have based our method on the analysis of the sources of Graton’s inspiration. We link these sources to the comics’ text bubbles, visual signs and iconic meanings of the drawings. Our analysis of the comics’ iconography based on the establishment of a mass culture dedicated to the automobile brings to light the existence of an urge to go beyond the limits of tradition. Our research highlights that the success of Michel Vaillant is due, in the main, to the series’ detailed knowledge of the automobile sports industry, and to the myths of speed, youth and progress that it promulgates – myths in which its young male readers could see themselves reflected and which would also prepare them for the future. Introduction In 2002, the Sport & Comics Exhibition was held at the International Festival of Comics in Angoulême, France: the Ninth Art had included sport.1 Some time after this, university studies were published which analysed the represen- Downloaded by [Australian Catholic University] at 05:19 25 September 2017 tation of sport in the most well-known comic books.
