Keystone Computer
Group to support Thursday Evening Summer Motorsport
The organisers of POWERnights, the Thursday Evening
Summer Motorsport Series, are pleased to announce that leading UK IT
specialists, Keystone Computer Group, have become the title sponsor of the
2008 series, which will now be known as the Keystone
Computer Group POWERnights 2008.
Uttoxeter
based Keystone Computer Group supported POWERnights in its inaugural season
last August. Keystone Managing Director Jonathan Blake was suitably
impressed by the POWERnights concept and decided to make the company the full
title sponsor for the four events at Silverstone in 2008. Founded in 1997,
Keystone Computer Group has become one of the UK’s leading IT
specialists with a business philosophy of providing a
single point of reference for IT solutions, products and services.
Jonathan Blake, Managing Director Keystone Computer Group said:
“We are extremely pleased to increase our support to become full title
sponsor of the 2008 POWERnights. The three events held in 2007 clearly
demonstrated that both the public and competitors wholly embraced this
exciting new concept. POWERnights provides a great platform for us to promote
our brand and invite our customers to enjoy a great evening of motorsport
action.”
“After
their support this year, we are delighted to announce the Keystone Computer
Group as the title sponsors of the 2008 POWERnights Series,” said Roger
Etcell, POWERnights Series Director. “We have always believed that
POWERnights is a very marketable concept, promoting motorsport entertainment
to both motorsport enthusiasts and a new audience. To have this belief
confirmed by securing a title sponsor after just three trial events is very
gratifying and we look forward to working closely with Jonathan and the team
at Keystone.”
The
POWERnights concept of a full days testing and qualifying, with eight 10
minute evening races, along with other entertainment, had a positive
reception from competitors, spectators, sponsors and the media in its
inaugural season of three events last August. The added bonus of TV
coverage and prize money attracted large grids of easily recognisable race
cars for spectators to enjoy.
