Who
& What
Collectively, more than a dozen companies and 100+ skilled individuals are responsible
for allocating more than $20 million in resources towards the packaging, production
and implementation of comprehensive marketing programs that include special events,
advertising, promotions, media and public relations.
The number of people and companies involved has grown exponentially over the past
decade. Ten years ago, the simulators were born in the back room of a college
student's apartment. They were engineered on a shoe string budget and were pasted
together with rubber bands, nails and pieces of wood. The initial software programs
ran on an 8088 PC and the feedback steering mechanisms operated through a network
of belts and pulleys.
Today the capabilities have expanded with technology and the largest simulators
are housed in huge semi-trucks that travel throughout Europe promoting the Rothmans
and Winfield tobacco brands at major consumer attractions. This consumer attraction
is simply the most technically advanced simulation on the planet and it is derived
from Formula 1 motor racing.
This huge commercial system includes motion platform systems, BoneKrusher 9000
high G-force feedback steering systems, 20' outdoor Barco Light Cannon imaging
systems, 42-inch Flat-panel Plasma graphics, concert quality sound systems, F1
show cars, merchandising exhibits, models and stages for celebrities and personalities.
The entire manufacturing and distribution process involves a broad spectrum of
skills and contracted staff including: software development, programming, mechanical
prototyping, race car engineering, computer imaging, graphic design, public relations,
special events management, web designers, photographers and media relation specialists.

We have marketing programs starting with basic trade show leases, or we can build
custom promotions, events, or marketing campaigns from scratch.
Most often brands opt to participate with our year-round events and marketing
programs as an added-value to their own initiatives. There are a lot of companies
involved around the world and collectively they offer unique cross-marketing opportunities
for brands.
Costs
Whether you are a small company that is looking for a good "bang for the

campaigns, we probably have a marketing program you'll be interested in.
We have budgets that will accommodate all levels. We've helped small companies
with budgets in the low thousands, and we also offer multi-million dollar promotional
campaigns for larger brands.
