| Blogger crowned virtual racing king Posted: 26 Jun 2011 06:30 PM PDT PETRONAS Dagangan Berhad (PDB) recently crowned Paul Tan, founder and blogger of Paul Tan Automotive News, the Racing King of the Petronas Primax 95 Xtra Race at the appreciation party, which saw about 100 of Paul Tan's supporters joining in the fun and celebration along with race rivals celebrity Juliana Evans and Hitz FM DJ Ean. The Petronas Primax 95 Xtra Race is a virtual race organised recently through Petronasbrands Facebook Fanpage. Starting May 3, fans were called to virtually 'fuel' their favourite racer with Primax 95 Xtra to the finish line. Fans who supported the winner throughout the race then stood a chance to be invited to the exclusive party. "While we celebrate Paul Tan's victory, we also want to show our appreciation to our racers and fans who have supported the race. It is also through this platform that we hope to build the mindshare of Petronas Primax 95 Xtra with fellow car enthusiasts," said Retail Business Division senior general manager Izuddin Husaini. "We are indeed delighted to be able to meet some of the fans in person this evening. PDB appreciates the fact that these fans are also Petronas ambassadors as they talk about their experience with friends and also provide us with valuable feedback on our products and services," he added. Throughout the race, Paul Tan, Juliana and Ean took to Facebook, Twitter and Blogs to call for support. What started as a close competition soon saw Tan leading the race towards the end, thanks to his large group of 'motoring' fans who diligently 'pumped' his virtual car with Petronas Primax 95 Xtra. Tan triumphed with close to 500 while Juliana followed closely behind with 418 supporters. Izuddin presented the winner's trophy to Tan and a token of appreciation consisting of Petronas Primax 95 Xtra merchandises, Petronas Gift Card and Formula One Touch n' Go card. Both Juliana and Ean were also presented with trophies and tokens of appreciation. Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price. |
