Win a Chance to Compete in an International Amateur Driving Competition - Using Someone Else's Gasoline!

NEW YORK, June 2 -- We already know about pain at the pump. Well, soaring gas prices also limited the joy in joyrides for 60 million automotive enthusiasts. Dunlop Tires is offering these drivers the chance of a lifetime. The company is looking for 16 people to drive hot sports cars, among other vehicles, using someone else's gasoline -- Dunlop's!

The Dunlop Drivers Cup is a unique international amateur driving competition. Consumers must apply online for the chance to compete in Drivers Cup, held at the U.S. Regional competition at Virginia International Raceway in September. The World Finals will be held in Europe early next year.

Four of the available slots will go to tire retailers, and consumers will vie for the remaining 12 slots. Drivers have until July 15 to apply. Please visit http://www.dunloptires.com/driverscup for more information.
