Go for it. I love F1, and to see someone that has a dream of being a part of it get there would be really cool. Start with the F1 website and start wrting letters. Every team actually has strong recruiting efforts every year.
I have always had the dream of learning how to fly. Thanks to a local club, and another automotive shop owner I'm now only a few more hours of instruction away from solo-ing.
Keep me posted, I'm pulling for you to make it. and it would be cool to see a shop of you on SPEED Network next year or two.
BTW, while I have never tried. I just may have the connections that could help if you need me to. I am pretty sure I know a few people that have been connected to the series. Whether they are still in position to lend assistance or not I'm not sure but the worst that they could say is they can't help.
