REVELL & Stacey David’s GearZ® ANNOUNCE NATIONAL MODEL CAR CHAMPIONSHIPS

"Sponsored by: TESTORS

When he’s not building a full-size vehicle on the set of his hit SPEED Channel series, editing video footage, doing voiceovers, or deciding what to create next, GearZ host and executive producer, Stacey, can often be found working on a model car. As a way to relax while still maintaining his creative edge, Stacey has been a hobbyist as long or longer than he’s been fixing and modifying real cars.

Starting his fifth season of GearZ this Fall, David previously hosted and produced another popular automotive series on Spike TV for eight years. Together with GearZ, Illinois-based Revell Inc. will conduct the inaugural Revell/GearZ National Model Car Championships. With the help of some 2,000 hobby shops and retailers, participants will be able to enter online and upload photos of their models.

In addition to awards and valuable prizes from Revell, Testors, Coast Airbrush and Iwata, the model car magazines, and GearZ, the winners in each category will be recognized along with images of their models shown on an episode of Stacey David’s GearZ®. Asked how today’s youth could be inspired and their interest in cars revitalized, David said, “We wanted to do something to spark their imagination, get them to use their hands and actually build something, and models seemed to be the perfect place to start. This contest will provide them with an incentive, along with bringing guys my age and older back into the hobby.”

“Revell is excited for the genuine partnership with Stacey David and GearZ to expose kids to the fun in building a scale model automobile kit," said Rick Haas, director of marketing for Revell, Inc. "It is also a fantastic opportunity to encourage those former 'baby boomer' model builders to build a kit with their kids or grandkids since we even have a competition class for novice builders."

The contest period for the Revell/GearZ National Model Car Championships is from January 15, 2011, through May 15, 2011. The Hot Rod theme coincides with many of the vehicles built on GearZ, and with a number of new Revell releases. Complete rules are available at hobby specialists nationwide, online at www.Revell.com or www.gearztv.com.

This promotion, a skill contest and not a sweepstakes, requires the purchase of one Revell or Monogram kit from a range of kits in order to qualify.
