When not working as a police officer and firefighter in Kalamazoo, Mich., Dan Frazier pursues his hobby of stock car racing. He has been trying to break into the higher levels of the sport for some time. Now could be his big break.

Frazier has been announced as one of the top 50 finalists for a new racing reality show, “Racin' for a Livin'.” Race fans from across the nation can vote for the drivers they wish to see on the show from now through the end of July. The top 12 drivers (as determined via fan voting) will be included in the season-long program.

The 12 “rookies” will compete both on and off the track, and the winner will be determined through a process of elimination during the show, which will be an in-depth training and racing process. The winning driver will get to compete in the NASCAR Busch Series in 2007.

To find out more about the show and to vote for Dan Frazier visit www.racinforalivin.com. Voting is unlimited and can be done more than once a day from now through the end of July. To visit Frazier’s personal Website visit www.frazierracing.com.
