Automotive Distribution Network Repair America Promotion

Network To Award 5 Service Dealers The ‘Ultimate Performance Driving Weekend’

From Oct. 1 to Nov. 30, repair shops that buy from participating Parts Plus distributors and auto stores can earn points for weekly and monthly prizes in addition to entries in the grand-prize drawing for the Ultimate High Performance Driving Weekend.

Automotive Network - LogoFor its second Repair America promotion this year, the Automotive Distribution Network will award five technicians a day of driving a 426-hp 2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE at the renowned Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving in Phoenix.

From Oct. 1 to Nov. 30, repair shops that buy from participating Parts Plus distributors and auto stores can earn points for weekly and monthly prizes in addition to entries in the grand-prize drawing for the Ultimate High Performance Driving Weekend, according to Bob Barstow, vice president of marketing for the Network.

“With the success of our Exotic Car Weekend in the summer, we decided to have another promotion. Participating service dealers collect points for purchases of products from our manufacturer partners — everything is tracked online, so it’s easy to play,” said Barstow. “The more points the shops earn, the higher the odds of being selected. Repair America is a fun, exciting way to generate customer loyalty and excitement for our Parts Plus warehouse distributors, jobbers and manufacturer partners.”

The grand-prize winners and their spouses will spend a four-day weekend at a Resort Spa in Phoenix, and on Saturday will enjoy the day with Parts Plus/Great Clips driver Clay Millican at the Bondurant School, where they will learn advanced street-driving skills and car-control techniques behind the wheel of a Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE. Other contest prizes include $2,500 in tool and equipment certificates, 60-inch flat-screen TVs and shop tools.
