|
The prizes will be on offer at the Hankook Superdome, a collaboration between Hankook Tyres and Electronic Arts which will be a highlight of the paddock display area during the two-day event at Eastern Creek International Raceway. The star attraction at the Hankook Superdome will be gaming consoles running the latest version of the hugely popular Need for Speed series, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. Visitors will compete to set the fastest lap time on Need for Speed Hot Pursuit, which boasts a suite of connected features called Autolog that enables players to connect, compare and compete with their friends effortlessly. Visitors will also see an exclusive trailer of the much-anticipated next game in the series, Need for Speed The Run, which is due for release on November 17. Using the groundbreaking Frostbite 2 engine, Need for Speed The Run will set the bar with unparalleled visual quality, enhanced physics and intense gameplay. The first five visitors to the Superdome each hour who register their details and say the words “Hankook Ventus” will receive a free T-Shirt as part of a merchandise pack. Hankook is a major supporter of the growing motor sport of Time Attack and is the naming sponsor of the hotly contested Open Class at the event. The Hankook Competition Open Class at WTAC will see many of Australia’s top aftermarket-tuning workshops and teams face-off in a two-day competition to set the fastest lap time on treaded tyres. Now in its fourth year, WTAC has attracted a record 130 entries, including teams from Japan, the US and New Zealand. Two of the favourites in the Hankook Competition Open Class – Sydney’s Nik Kalis in his Mitsubishi Evo IX and Adelaide’s Brad Trenwith driving an FD-series Mazda RX-7 – have chosen the Ventus TD. Both drivers are currently leading their respective state competitions. Additionally, Hankook will award $2500 worth of competition tyres to the fastest non-sponsored competitors using Hankook tyres in the Hankook Competition Open and Clubsprint classes. With over 115 million units sold worldwide, Need for Speed is the best selling racing video game series in the world, and one of the most successful video game franchises of all time. |
