Pro-Touring.com/bonspeed Bash sweepstakes

Win an Invite to the Industry Party of 2008

Every year true pro-touring enthusiasts attend SEMA, they walk the aisles and see the latest and greatest parts and feature cars. Unless they are industry insiders they only hear about the cocktail parties, receptions and get-togethers. The parties where the company owners, designers and marketing guys from top companies rub elbows with celebrities, Detroit hot shots and racers.

In 2008 that all changes because, bonspeed Wheels and Pro-Touring.com are inviting two lucky winners and a guest to the “bonspeed Wheels Rock & Roll Bash”. The exclusive invite only party is held on the penthouse level of the Hard Rock Hotel in a celebrity suite. bonspeed has invited the industry movers and shakers, celebrities of music, racing and car building. The party is hosted by Michael Anthony (a founding member of Van Halen/bonspeed co owner), Brad Fanshaw (bonspeed’s President) and Larry Dixon ( bonspeed sponsored Top Fuel driver).

Two confirmed attendees of the Pro-Touring banquet will be chosen on October 20, 2008. Each winner and a guest will receive an invitation to the bonspeed bash on Wed Nov 5th from 7-10pm. The winners will get the VIP treatment including all party access, a first look at bonspeed’s newest designs and products, a cool swag bag and some great stories to tell at the Pro-Touring banquet on Thursday night.

All you have to do is guess the total number of views there will be of our MotiV8r build thread on Oct 20 at 7pm California time.

You will need to submit your guess by replying to this thread by Monday Oct 13 at 9p.m. California time (extended deadline). At that time this thread will be locked to further posting.

On October 20th at 7pm California time the two people with the closest guesses will win. In the even of a tie I will award the tickets to the person who posted first.

Have fun and I'll see 2 of you and your guests there!


Rules:

Do not post a guess unless you meet the stipulations below

Site sponsors and manufactures are not eligible. This is meant for the average Joe and face it, they will be there any way

You must have purchased tickets for our Pro-Touring.com dinner prior to this Monday Oct 13 at 9pm Californina time (that's when the guessing closes and an extra day added)

You must be in Las Vegas on Wed Nov 5th and able to attend the bash

Tickets are not transferable

Note: I reserve the right to change the rules if I screwed up the text above. LOL!

Just wanted to let everyone know how excited I am that we are able to team with Pro-Touring.com on this promotion. The "bonspeed Bash" should be a great party, the RSVP list is beginning to look like a who's who of the aftermarket.

Wishing the two would-be winners the best of luck!

guys, I get to go to a a fair bit of these SEMA parties, this one is the coolest one I have heard about this year! the place, the people, awesome!

I want to help some of you cheat a bit. On the day we started the video updates, (You have to do your own research), we had 19,700 post! One weekend we had 3500 post, I am not saying which weekend. Right now we have 41,800. you have to do your own math, but this should help a bit.

Good luck all,

I just wanted to congratulate Tony and Mark on winning the bonspeed Bash VIP experience! I hope that these guys have a great time and after the bash still have enough energy to make it back to SEMA on Thursday.

Everyone be sure to get the details from both Mark and Tony at the Pro-Touring banquet and also push them to post some pictures!

Thanks again to Larry, Pro-Touring.com and everyone who participated. See you at SEMA!

Funny I just bought a new small camera too mark and like an 8 gig sd card for the thing. Im taking LOTS of pictures this time, my biggest regret the last time i went to SEMA was lack of pictures I took.
