Anthony Legros Wins 2012 Chevy Cruze In Pronto Promotion

Fifty-four guests participated in the "Team Texas" NASCAR 10-lap driving experience at Texas Motor Speedway on Sept. 24. The racing experience was followed by a grand prize drawing for a 2012 Chevy Cruze.

GRAPEVINE, Texas – A grand prize winner has been named in the Pronto Auto Parts/ACDelco “Cruzen through the Summer” promotion, which ran during the months of June, July and August. The promotion was designed to increase sales, create customer excitement and reward customers for their loyalty over the summer. Left to right: John Berg of ACDelco; Matteo Piano, Buy Wise/Samuels Inc.; Anthony Legros, Boyden Friendly Service; Kerri Gulick, and Bill Maggs of National Pronto Association.

The grand prize was a 2012 Chevrolet Cruze. Thousands of gift cards and Under Armour polo shirts also were awarded over the course of the promotion. On Aug. 19, each of the Pronto ACDelco distributors drew the name of one finalist. The finalist and warehouse sales representative were sent to Texas for a NASCAR driving school event and the grand prize drawing.

Fifty-four guests participated in the “Team Texas” NASCAR 10-lap driving experience at Texas Motor Speedway on Sept. 24. Customers were allowed to reach speeds up to 150 mph and even pass other cars.

Immediately following the driving school, the Grand Prize drawing was held for the 2012 Chevrolet Cruze. Finalists’ names were pulled from a bucket one by one. The finalist, whose name was drawn, then chose a key. If the key unlocked the treasure chest, the finalist won the Chevy Cruze. The winner was Anthony Legros of Boyden Friendly Service. Legros had another participant’s son blow on the key for good luck. As luck would have it, Anthony won the car.

Legros is the proud owner of Boyden Friendly Service located in Maplewood, N.J. Boyden Friendly is a customer of Pronto Member Buy Wise Auto Parts/Samuels Inc. in Vauxhall, N.J.

Like learning a new language, knowing how to translate spark plug numbers can open up a new way to inventory and sell spark plugs for counter professionals.
