First or Fast? Real Estate Agents Love Their Cars – As Does KB3

RE/MAX of Georgia sponsors SR² Motorsports No. 24 RE/MAX Toyota at NASCAR Nationwide Series Race on August 31

Few professionals rely as much on their cars as real estate professionals. Many spend more time in their car than in their office, and for some, their car is their office. Real estate agents truly love their cars, and often, that passion started with their very first car. Recently, RE/MAX of Georgia decided to combine “first cars” with “fast cars” in conjunction with the NASCAR Nationwide Series Race on August 31st at the Atlanta Motor Speedway in Hampton (GA).

As part of its ongoing sports marketing strategy to promote the RE/MAX brand, and to celebrate the ongoing love affair between real estate agents and their cars, RE/MAX of Georgia will sponsor Ken Butler III (“KB3”) of Lawrenceville, GA. KB3 will pilot SR² Motorsports No. 24 RE/MAX Toyota in GREAT CLIPS / GRIT CHIPS 300.

RE/MAX invited all its 1,200+ agents and brokers in Georgia to send in a picture of their very first car for a chance to win a day at the races and be a part of the action. After receiving more than 100 entries four lucky RE/MAX agents were randomly chosen and will be cheering KB3 on at Atlanta Motor Speedway on August 31, 2013. The lucky winners are David Schultz of RE/MAX Towne Square, Holly Fogel and Mack Perry, both of RE/MAX Center, and Vikki Traywick of RE/MAX Champions. For the record, KB3’s first car was a 1998 Firebird TransAm.

See some of the “first cars” here as well as SR² Motorsports No. 24, official RE/MAX of Georgia car. To see the RE/MAX no.24 car under the lights at Atlanta Motor Speedway tune in to ESPN2 at 7:30 p.m. est. on August 31, 2013.
