Contest: Free PRS Guitar for One Lucky Hyperfest Attendee
(Stevensville, MD) June 9, 2008 — PRS Guitars has teamed up with NASA Racing and Summit Point Raceway to co-sponsor the 7th Annual Hyperfest, a unique event for auto and racing enthusiasts. Over the years, Hyperfest has provided road racing, drift competitions, rollover contests, the opportunity to drive or ride out on the race track, and much more. To add to the excitement this year, one lucky attendee will go home with a one-of-a-kind, autographed PRS guitar…completely free.
The to-be-raffled guitar is a Blue Matteo PRS SE Custom. It will be autographed by both Bill Scott and Paul Reed Smith. Scott, a storied racer, was the 1970 Formula VEE World Champion and went on to transform the once-abandoned Summit Point Raceway into the world-class training center for high-performance drivers it is today. Paul Reed Smith is the founder and Managing General Partner of PRS Guitars, Ltd. based in Stevensville, MD. PRS guitars are played by some of today’s top guitarists, including Carlos Santana, Al Dimeola, Linkin Park, and Mark Tremonti.
To enter the drawing for your chance to win this distinctive guitar, simply enter the HyperFest event on Saturday, June 21st through the main gate where flyers will be handed out to every attendee. Each flyer will have a unique number on it. Jens Scott (son of Bill Scott) will randomly draw the winning number on the concert stage just prior to a live performance by Colouring Lesson. You must be present to win.
