TORRANCE,
CA
— Drivewear®
is a proud sponsor of this year’s Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix,
taking place July 7 – 15, 2007.
Beginning as a one-day race in 1983, the PVGP has grown into
to 10-day festival of races, car shows, a Rally and a Black-tie
Gala. With more than 200,000 spectators, the Grand Prix in
Schenley Park has established itself as the nation's largest
vintage race event and the only one staged on city streets. The
show will culminate with the 25th annual vintage races
and car shows at Schenley Park on the weekend of July 14/15.
As
a Platinum Sponsor, Younger Optics (manufacturer of Drivewear
lenses) and Transitions Optical will fit more than 250 drivers with
Drivewear lenses in their prescription.
Drivewear and Activated by Transitions™ logos
will be featured on two pacecars as well as billboards, posters, and
various other grand prix promotional items.
The
Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix’s mission is to produce a
world-class vintage racing event in order to raise funds to help
provide residential care, treatment and support for developmentally
disabled individuals in the Pittsburgh region.
Drivewear and Transitions Optical representatives will be
present at the Schenley Park race, July 14-15 with tents located in
the golf course area and at the start/finish line.
Drivewear
lenses uniquely combine Transitions™ Photochromic Technology and
NuPolar®
polarization to create a new category of lens designed specifically
to meet the unique visual demands of the driving
task. Drivewear
is the first polarized photochromic lens to
darken behind the windshield
of a car, allowing Drivewear to change from high contrast
green/yellow to copper to dark reddish brown (depending on lighting
conditions) in order to enhance the
driver’s vision. Drivewear
lenses are also polarized to block blinding glare, which is
absolutely essential when driving a car.
