Contingency Programs
NASA welcomes any company to offer contingency programs to the Time Trial competitors. NASA does not charge a participation fee and will post a link on www.nasa-tt.com to your company's website with the description of the program. NASA will not be responsible for administration of awards and prize distribution. If the company needs verification of a specific part used during a time trial competition, a NASA official will be available to sign a "verification form" which must be part of your contingency package, and must require the driver to bring the form and the vehicle to the official for signature. Please remember that contingency programs are designed to award a competitor that uses a product, and they are good marketing material, because that product is proving to be effective. Any company that wishes to become a presenting sponsor solely for the sake of marketing, without a contingency program is also welcome to contact series officials. Please send a link to your website that details your contingency program to our National TT Director greg@nasa-tt.com and we will get it posted.
