Americas, also promises to deliver an extraordinary experience for
attendees and will feature a custom branded truck with garage-themed
components.

Parts and Interactions, following the success of last year’s tour, which
made 41 stops throughout 17 states in a 9-month timeframe. The 2017
tours focus on deeper customer engagement through interactive and
educational experiences, as well as driving traffic to Advance stores
through local events, professional installer partnerships and VIP
experiences for Speed Perks members.

The Restoration and VIP Tours will feature parking lot events,
educational seminars and talk shops for auto enthusiasts across the
country. Event attendees will have the chance to win prizes, try out the
Speed Perks game app, and on the Restoration tour, meet Tuxlee,
the Speed Perks tour mascot and Instagram star. The tours will feature
more than 24 events in the first half of the year, including concerts
and car shows such as the Barrett-Jackson car auction in West Palm
Beach, FL and the CMA Music Festival in Nashville, TN.
