The winners of the Professionals’ Choice Hollywood Exotic Driving Promotion recently returned from an weekend of VIP treatment. They experienced a trip to Hollywood, Calif., where they enjoyed dinner at The Ivy restaurant in Beverly Hills, drove several exotic cars at the California Speedway, and had a VIP experience at Universal Studios Hollywood.

They had the opportunity to drive the new McLaren 570S at speeds of more than 100 miles an hour, and were escorted to the front of the lines at Universal Studios as well as on the sets of television shows. They were amongst the first to see the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Hollywood.

“I completely thought it was a joke when the guys from Speedway came into my office and told me I’d won. But, here we sit having dinner at The Ivy in Beverly Hills,” said Rick Wolsifer from Coatesville, Ind.

The winners were from Kasper Buick in Sandusky, Ohio; New Fairfield Auto in New Fairfield, Conn.; and R & M Automotive in Plainfield, Ind. These winners were customers of APA shareholders World Auto Parts in Cleveland; Levine Auto + Truck Parts in Danbury, Conn.; and Speedway Automotive in Indianapolis, respectively.

This promotion ran at hundreds of APA’s WD locations across North America from January to March 2016 and was sponsored by Airtex ASC, Akebono, Autolite, BBB Industries, Beck Arnley, Bosch, Champ, Denso, Dorman, Exide, Federal Mogul, FRAM, Gates, KYB, MAS, Mevotech, Permatex, SKF, Smitty’s Supply, Trico, Walker Products and ZF/Sachs.
