Adelaide Hills based Rally Power Motorsport and driver, James Rodda, will continue their support of Cystic Fibrosis SA by running an online auction for high profile signage and a hot lap in their Evo 9 rally car at this weekend’s Lightforce Rally SA.
The highest bidder will receive their name / message of support or business logo on the rear doors and boot of Rodda’s rally car as well as going for a hot lap in the Mt Crawford Forest on Friday as a part of the Lightforce Rally SA media activities.
The team will also include the winner’s name in media and press releases pre- and post-event. The estimated value of the prize is over $3000!
The auction is currently live on the Rally Power Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/rallypower), but those who do not have Facebook can bid via emailing jrodda@rallypower.com.au. Be quick as the auction closes this coming Tuesday, 6 September at 7pm.
“We wanted to continue our support of Cystic Fibrosis SA, and thought of the unique opportunity for a business or individual to bid for what is basically a team event sponsorship and hot lap at Lightforce Rally SA! We will be donating 50% of the funds raised to Cystic Fibrosis SA,” Rodda said.
“Cystic Fibrosis really became personal when it impacted our head mechanic and supporter of ten years, Matt Parker from MJP Automotive. Matt and his wife, Kate had their second child, Macie, diagnosed with the strongest form of the disease just after birth.
“Seeing first-hand how it affects a child and the ramifications for the family, it really hits home. It was a natural instinct for me to want to raise money for CFSA and Team Macie after the years of support from Matt,” Rodda added.
Rally Power Motorsport have raised over $5000 since 2012 through sales of stubby holders and also the successful Rally Rides for a Reason Charity Event run jointly with Velocity Racing, raising a combined $8000 for CFSA and Royal Society for the Blind.
