Shell Advantage Event - Las Vegas Motor Speedway - SEMA
 |
| |
Every year, SEMA is a whirlwind of action. Especially for us media whore's. There are always so many press conferences to cover, parties to attend and people to talk to that prioritizing one's schedule is not an easy task.
Yet, making sure we made it to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Shell Advantage event was really a no brainer. After all, it's not often we get invited to hang out with NASCAR legends like Dale Earnhardt Jr. (Junior to his friends) and get whipped around a proper banked oval track at over 160mph. In fact, we never get invited to do things like that at all.
Not only did we get to meet and mingle with some NASCAR folk and get rag dolled through 3 hot laps in a Richard Petty NASCAR Driving school car (yah, not exactly the real deal but the next best thing), we also had the pleasure of getting schooled on why the Shell family of brands including Quaker State, Black Magic, Pennzoil, Gum Out and Rain-X are some seriously top products. Team Shell had set up a series of interactive displays that allowed us to "experience" the competitive edge of their products when compared along -side other brands. From testing our skills at switching out the tires on a mock up NASCAR to filling our pockets with new Auto Expressions Ed Hardy lighters and air fresheners we found the whole event not only informative but quite entertaining as well.
