Konig, GT Revolution and SPC Performance sponsoring Scion VIP Product Giveaways

We’re happy to announce that all Scion VIP invited Scion owners will be automatically entered into product giveaways at each of the 5 remaining Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod events for 2006. In addition to goodies from Scion and TRD, products from Konig Wheels, GT Revolution, and SPC Performance will be a part of the giveaway. Read on for more details.

Konig Wheels

Konig Wheels, manufacturers of some of the most popular wheels of the tuning scene, has joined Scion VIP as a product giveaway sponsor for the Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod series. At each of the five remaining Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod events, Konig is supplying a set of wheels to be given away to one lucky Scion owner. Invited Scion VIP guests are automatically entered into the product giveaway session of each Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod event as a part of their VIP package. Konig’s complete line of automotive and truck wheels for 2006 include hot new styles like the stylish Crosshairs wheel and the lightweight Minuz performance oriented wheel. With many sizes and applications available throughout the line, Konig has plenty of choices for the winning Scion owner – whether he drives a xA, xB, or tC. Konig also conducts a popular virtual car show at its company website, open to all Konig customers. Check out the full Konig wheel line and see more online Konig contests at www.konigwheels.com.

SPC Performance

Lowered cars equal cars in need of camber and/or alignment adjustment. Luckily, if you’re the owner of a lowered Scion xA, xB, or tC, SPC Performance has addressed changed geometry issues for you. And since SPC Performance – makers of one of the most expansive lines of engineered camber and alignment kits for lowered cars – is an official product giveaway sponsor for the Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod series, you just might win the kit you need for your Scion as a Scion VIP guest. At each of the five remaining Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod events, SPC is putting up a complete Scion tC alignment kit, including adjustable rear suspension arms, (MSRP $367) for grabs as well as front camber adjustment packages for Scion xA and xB owners. Check out all of SPC Performance’s products and video clips about the camber and alignment issues that could be killing your tires and handling at www.spcperformance.com.


GT Revolution

GT Revolution’s driving simulation game chairs bring the elements of a racing environment into your living room. At select Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod events, a Scion VIP guest will be able to walk (with some help) away from the event with a fully optioned GT Revolution simulation chair (MSRP $399). At the Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod Engishtown race, Scion VIP guests will be challenged to their best (virtual) drag racing abilities as two GT Revolution seats will be on hand loaded up with the new NHRA Championship Drag Racing Game for Sony PlayStation2. One GT Revolution simulation chair will be awarded to the guest with the lowest ET during the day! To check out the racing seat-equipped GT Revolution simulation chair, visit www.gtrevolution.com – whether its Gran Turismo or NHRA Drag Racing, this seat will be the best seat in the house.

Spring Fling
Over 120 Scion hit E-town for ScionVIP@NHRA Xplod Springnationals

Almost overshadowing the 200+ mph drag racing action going on just twenty feet away from them, over 120 Scion xA, xB, and tCs took center stage at Englishtown, New Jersey’s Raceway Park this past May 7. The gathering of over 240 invited Scion owners and guests marked the second event of the 2006 Scion VIP @ NHRA Xplod series. The Scion caravans began clogging the Raceway Park roadways even before the event’s start time of 9AM. Many of the mostly customized Scions had driven hundreds of miles to take part in the gathering – part of the Nitto NHRA Sport Compact Springnationals weekend. And once the cars had settled into their trackside spaces in the Scion VIP area, the cleaning and polishing of cars began in preparation for the Scion VIP judged car show.

Outside of the Scion VIP area, NHRA Xplod Sport Compact drag racers – including Scion pro racers Brad Personett, Chris Rado, and Leslie Durst-Armendariz - were already preparing for the big day of racing. Tens of thousands of fans would eventually descend upon Raceway Park to check out the racing as well as NHRA Xplod features such as the Xplod lifestyle stage, a huge all-make car show, and of course – the trackside Scion VIP gathering.

By noon, Scion VIPs and their guests had worked up an appetite perfect for a catered Pitside BBQ under the Scion VIP hospitality tent. The lunch break was a perfect pause to work up anticipation for the Scion VIP Product Giveaway session at the Scion VIP DJ stage. Thanks to generous sponsors Scion, TRD, Konig wheels, Advanced Clutch Technology, SPC Performance, and GT Revolution, over 40 Scion owners had more than the regular Scion swag and commemorative t-shirt to throw in the back of their trunks.

In fact, Jessica Leonard made the eight-hour drive down from New Hampshire well worth it by winning a set of 17” Konig wheels for her Scion tC. Chris Glover also scored big by winning an ACT performance clutch for his Scion xB, while Joe Flories and James Ennis both took home camber and alignment correction kits for their lowered Scions courtesy of SPC Performance. Vimean Hing worked a little harder than the Giveaway winners for his prize – a GT Revolution driving simulation chair; Vimean beat all other in locking down the best ET of the day playing PS2’s NHRA Drag Racing Championship in the GT Revolution Drag Challenge to win the racing-seat equipped simulator.


For many though, despite the Giveaway and other activities – including a scooter drag where the winning team took home iPod Shuffle digital music players – the highlight of the day came at the end of the day, when the winners of the Scion VIP car show were announced. For their hard work and creativity, the following Scion owners were recognized with a Scion VIP trophy:

Scion xA category:
First place – Jose Diaz
Second place – Edwin Higgins
Third place – Carlos Vasquez

Scion xB category:
First place – Lester Bracero
Second place – Stuart Mckechnie
Third place – Frank Carlo

Scion tC category:
First place – Jay Cee
Second place – Chris Krivenski
Third place – Darnell Simpkins

Best Exterior/Paint – Dustin Rand
Best In Car Entertainment – Brian Samuels
Scion Dedication Award – Anthony Scott
Best Release Series – Gino Corona
Best of Show Scion – Adam Walker

The 2006 ScionVIP @ NHRA Xplod Scion owner event series continues at the Mountain Madness NHRA Sport Compact Nationals, where once again invited Scion owners and guests will get to cheer on Scion racers on the track while enjoying Scion VIP hospitality and fun trackside.
