Acorn Launches Lotus Challenge, Release Date 19th February 1993
Acorn Computers has teamed up with Lotus Cars to launch a major new
promotion aimed at the Consumer marketplace.
The promotion, which runs between 15th March 1993 and 31st August 1993,
comes in three main sections: a high performance customer challenge, a
specially bundled "Turbo Pack" computer, and major promotional support for
dealers.
Customers will be encouraged to compete in a special competition version of
the popular game Lotus Turbo Challenge II and will get the chance of winning
one of a limited set of 1/36th scale models of the Lotus Elan or Esprit.
Four regional winners will receive a trip around the Lotus factory and a
chance to test drive the new Lotus Esprit. They will then go forward to the
national final where the overall winner will receive an all expenses paid
trip to the Italian Grand Prix in September with a special pass to the Lotus
Formula 1 Team pits.
To coincide with the Lotus Turbo Challenge, Acorn is producing a limited
edition A3010 Family Turbo Pack which contains an A3010 32-bit RISC
computer, a Lotus Turbo Challenge game, a Quickshot joystick, one year's
on-site maintenance and #200 worth of software discount vouchers, all for
#499 (including VAT).
Dealers participating in the scheme will also receive assistance from Acorn
with their advertising and promotional programmes, in the form of special
competition software, prizes, posters and other display merchandising, help
with editorial and advertising material and the chance for the best
performing dealer to join the competition prizewinner at the Italian Grand
Prix in September.
Acorn's Consumer Marketing Manager, Simon Lovesey said "With a greater
number of Acorn dealers increasing their activity in the consumer
marketplace, we strongly believe in the importance of providing high profile
promotions along the lines of the Turbo Challenge to provide dealers with
support and opportunities to generate sales."

over 1,000 other prizes for those entrants who are able to demonstrate their
skills in this highly stimulating computer game."
