    Each to Receive $5,000 Champion
    ® Racing Sponsorship, Chance to Win
    $50,000 Grand Prize Sponsorship Package

    Southfield, Michigan, - Fifteen grassroots racers representing several different forms of engine-driven competition have been selected as finalists in the 2013 “Search for a Champion” racing sponsorship contest, which will award $125,000 in sponsorship cash from Federal-Mogul’s (NASDAQ: FDML) iconic Champion® brand of spark plugs, wiper blades and chemical additives.
