Graham Rahal Foundation announces new helmet design contest

Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing driver Graham Rahal announced today that the Graham Rahal Foundation will be hosting its second annual helmet design contest. Fans will have access to a pre-made helmet template where they can create a unique design. The template and rules are available online at www.GRFContests.org. Designs must be submitted electronically on www.GRFContests.org between Aug. 24 and Sept. 8, in accordance with the official contest rules.

At the conclusion of the submission period, Rahal will select the top five designs and post them on both the contest website, www.GRFContests.org, and his mobile application, which is available on all iPhones and Androids. Fans will then be able to vote for the winning helmet design from Sept. 9-16, via either www.GRFContests.org or Rahal's mobile application. When voting concludes, the design receiving the most votes will be painted by Art Rotondo (www.ArtRotondo.com), who provides the artwork for all of Rahal's Bell helmets. Rahal will then wear the helmet during the IZOD IndyCar Series finale at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana on Oct. 19.
