Monte Carlo sports car tour - press release

Dear Sir or Madam,



I am writing to let you know about our next sports car tour, which runs from
Poole to Monte Carlo in April this year.  Please find our press release
below.

We are getting very good media coverage – local and national (as well as in
Monte Carlo) thanks to the help of the PR agency, PRFX.  

We are also hoping to raise some funds for UNICEF. 

You will notice that the tour is much better value than similar events.

Please let me know if you would like any further information.

Best wishes,

David.

David R. Jones,
Director.
Red Dragon Motorsport (UK).


Press Release

It’s Monte Carlo or Bust!  Why?  Just for the hell of it!

Bournemouth-based Red Dragon Motorsport (UK) has put together another
Helluvit Sports Car Tour, this time scheduled to leave Poole as dawn is
breaking on 18th April to travel down to Monaco to arrive in time for the
opening of a very special motor show.

 

The tour, which costs £1900 for each car (2-person entry), is effectively a
sports car dash down to Monaco, along the lines of the Gumball Rally or the
Cannonball Run, but without the craziness and mayhem of those events.  The
event will also hopefully raise some cash for the international children’s
charity UNICEF (£25 per car is to be assigned from the entry fee to UNICEF
and Red Dragon would like to encourage participants to raise additional
sponsorship funds for this charity).

Entrants will stay in two hotels along the way (and on the way back), but
most importantly, they will have the opportunity to stay at an exclusive
hotel in Monte Carlo on the night of 20th April.  Every participant will
also receive a VIP pass to the Top Marques Monaco Luxury and Supercar Show.
Last year, the show was opened by James Bond film star Roger Moore, and the
previous year by HRH Prince Albert of Monaco, but this year the identity of
the celebrity doing the honours remains a closely-guarded secret.

However, TV personality and Formula 1 commentator Murray Walker (who
recently returned to commentating for the Grand Prix Masters series) has
confirmed that he will be the after-dinner speaker at the Drivers’ Luncheon
at the Hotel de Paris in Casino Square.

 

The man behind Helluvit, David Jones, says: “This tour is designed for
people who enjoy taking their sports car for a spin on great driving roads.
The tour, the drivers’ luncheon and the supercar show will also be an
excellent promotional, networking and hospitality opportunity for companies
and individuals wishing to raise their profile.  If you haven’t got a sports
car, beg, borrow or hire (but please don’t steal) one and join us as we head
down to Monaco!”

 

David Jones is available for interviews relating to the Helluvit Spring
Sports Car Tour to Monte Carlo.

 

Helluvit is currently sponsored by Spearmint Rhino Gentlemen's Clubs,
Battistini's Custom Cycles, Bulldog Martial Arts, El Molino Mediterranean
Restaurant and ETC International College, but Red Dragon are looking for
additional sponsors who would like to enter a car, sponsor a car, sponsor
the event itself or make a donation to UNICEF.
