Motor racing fans from remote Northern Territory and Western Australian coastal areas will have the opportunity to meet Craig at the following locations and dates during this FPR Roadshow:

May 25 - Katherine (NT) - Linsday Street - 12:00pm - 6:00pm
May 27- Halls Creek (WA) - Great Northern Highway - 12:00pm - 6:00pm May 29- Broome - Male Oval Reserve - 9:00am - 1:00pm June 1 - Port Hedland - Marapikurrinya Park - 12:00pm - 6:00pm June 2 - Karratha - Centro Karratha Shopping Centre - 2:00pm - 8:00pm June 4 - Carnarvon - Civic Centre Car Park - 12:00pm - 6:00pm June 6 - Geraldton - Eden Clarke Oval - 9:00am - 1:00pm

One of FPR's brand new B-Double transporters will be parked at all of the central locations listed with official merchandise sales, appearances and media
events taking place in each town.

The popular FPR Falcon V8 Supercar simulator ride will also be making the trek to Perth with the all blue convoy.

FPR has also devised a schools based fund raising strategy aligned with this Road to Perth trip, enabling one primary and secondary school in each town to conduct raffles to determine the winner of a ride around town with Craig
Lowndes in an FPV GT. Each winner and two of their friends will go for a 290 kilowatt powered cruise around their hometown with the triple Australian V8 Supercar Champion.

This trip is something that Craig has wanted to do for a number of years and he is looking forward to taking the family along on this 4,500 kilometre adventure.

"Nat and I can't wait to visit the towns on this trip. This will be our first long road trip with Levi, and it is sure to be a memorable one. We look forward to meeting many people who normally wouldn't get the opportunity to make it to one of our races. We live in a fantastic country and we rarely have the chance to see enough of it, so I couldn't think of a better way to get from the Darwin round to the Perth race than this," Craig said.

FPR Managing Director David Flint believes that this FPR roadshow provides an excellent opportunity for fans along the Western Australian coast to feel a part of the sport of V8 Supercar racing.

"This trip will enable our Western Australian fans to meet Craig and to learn more about our team and V8 Supercar racing. We are also making a special point of visiting Ford dealers along with our sponsors' affiliated operations along the route, making them feel a part of this event. I hope that many fans take this opportunity to meet with the team at their various stops along the
journey," he said.
