Has anybody had a NASCAR internship? I'm looking to do one for school, and I was wondering what the qualifications are, what they look for, housing and stuff? And where ya'll worked!? Thanks!

The NASCAR Diversity Summer Internship Program will employ college students for an eight-week session during the summer to introduce them to NASCAR and the job opportunities available in and around the sport.
Nineteen different companies will participate in the program - NASCAR's offices in Daytona Beach, Fla., Charlotte, N.C, and New York, as well as Bessey Motorsports, the Daytona International Speedway, Conseco, Dover Downs International Speedway, Gatorade, General Motors, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., The Home Depot, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, MB2 Motorsports, Motorola, New Hampshire International Speedway, Phoenix International Raceway, Pocono Raceway, Roush Racing, Street and Smith's Sports Group, Talladega Superspeedway and the Texas Motor Speedway.
The program is being administered by Neostar Sports, a minority-owned marketing company based in Plantation, Fla. Neostar also created the same type internship on the PGA Tour.
The program is open to men and women of all cultural backgrounds, and it exposes students to career opportunities throughout the motorsports industry, NASCAR officials said.
Each company will design its own internship, and students will be paid during their eight-week session.
Students who are interested in the internship should have completed their junior year in college and must be in good academic standing. Each student is required to provide an official copy of their transcript and be legally permitted to work in the United States.
Applications can be found on the Internet at Neostarsports.com

I think the best way would be to mail a resume back to the teams shops. There are many teams out there and I'm sure one of them has an internship. Maybe visit one in person and see if you can talk to someone. Good luck, that would be awesome.
