Drayson Racing Offers Great Line of Last Minute Holiday Wish List Items

iTunes to Ts, Drayson has Something for Every Motorsport Fan

GLOUCESTERSHIRE, ENGLAND – Looking for the right gift for the sportscar racing fan on your holiday list? Just in time for the 2009 holiday, gift-giving season Drayson Racing has added several new items to its merchandise cache for the diehard petrol head.

Top amongst new items is the availability of “Licence to Le Mans” at iTunes (www.iTunes.com). Fans of Drayson Racing, motorsport, documentary filmmaking and those who love a story of the struggle to reach a dream will appreciate this fine, multi-part, insiders look at the 2008 Drayson Racing season. Centred on Drayson’s fight to overcome a longstanding ban on drivers with monocular vision from racing at Le Mans, “Licence to Le Mans” showed to the British public Drayson could not only compete with the best drivers in the world, but better them. “Licence to Le Mans”, filmed and edited by internationally renowned Greenlight Television for the United Kingdom television market, followed Paul Drayson, his family and team through its first tumultuous season of an open-door look at the family, the team and the development of a new car in one of the world’s most hotly contested motorsport arenas. This is the first opportunity to own a complete copy of this critically acclaimed work.

Drawing from its 2009 “World Tour”, t-shirts, polo shirts, hats and even umbrellas can be purchased that draw from the American Le Mans Series, the Le Mans Series and the team’s first foray at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Many of these items depict the last season with the Aston Martin Vantage GT2 thereby making them instant collectibles. Included is a special American Le Mans Series-only Vantage GT2 t-shirt which portrays the 007 at speed on-track as well as a limited run of 007 caps - the same ones Drayson Racing team members wore during the ’09 season. For American Le Mans Series-specific items, please visit www.americanlemans.com.

Highly sought-after items from the Le Mans Series include the No. 87 branded Drayson Racing, full-size umbrella and polo shirt. From the team’s 24 Hours of Le Mans debut, you can purchase a No. 87 cap or t-shirt commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Aston Martin’s first Le Mans victory. This slate grey “t” depicts the Drayson Vantage poised next to the 1959 Le Mans-winning DBR1/2. This shirt further draws from the history of the marque in displaying the Aston Martin Heritage Trust logo. Le Mans Series and 24 Hours of Le Mans items can be purchased by contacting Racing Retail at nick@racingretail.com.

For those interested in scale replicas, Sparks has created a 1:43rd model of the No. 87 Drayson Racing Aston Martin Vantage GT2 which raced at Le Mans. Visit your local quality die cast or automotive memorabilia shop to buy one of these limited edition works.
