Unique Access – High Net Worth Focus

• There are 27 Vintage Racing clubs in the USA and over 500 in the UK & Europe. An estimated 10 million people world-wide own vintage cars. Until the formation of the Vintage Racing League (VRL), there was no national/global customer acquisition platform based on Vintage Racing.

• The VRL will uniquely connect our Sponsors and Advertisers with 10 million high-net worth people through their passion for Vintage cars and Vintage Racing.

• To accelerate the VRL’s growth, we built a world-class Social Network for people that love vintage cars (see MyVRL - www.myvrl.com).

• Socially, MyVRL’s purpose is to create a community so that the 10 million Vintage car owners world-wide can find and communicate with each other.

• From a business perspective, MyVRL will improve our Sponsors and Advertisers ability to sell their products and services to high net worth individuals, by providing timely information about Member buying preferences and needs. MyVRL will generate revenue from: Merchandising & Licensing, Sponsorship Sales and the sale of Information.

Partner Update

• The purpose of this Partner Update is to provide new information about the development status of the Vintage Racing League.

• We remain very positive about the long term success of the VRL because of the unique focus and access to the target high net worth customer segment.

• The Founders continue to fund and operate the business and have done so for the previous 2+ years.

• During this time, accomplishments include:• The development and refinement of the Vintage Racing

League Business and Implementation Plan, (www.thevrl.com).

• The successful creation and launch of a world-class Social Network (www.myvrl.com) to drive member acquisition.

• Creation of numerous business relationships to further promote the business.

• We are now seeking $5 million to grow the business.

For a Richer, More Tactile Customer Experience

Corporate Events

Less memorable for “Non - Participant” Attendees

• Behind the ropes experience. Single Event Sponsorship (e.g. The AT&T Pebble Beach).

Memorable, Tactile Experiences for Passionate “Participatory” Attendees

• Separated from “the action” by arena seating. Individual Box Ownership (or Lease) required for “limited” Premium Seating per city – not a “one stop” national platform. Very expensive option for mass entertainment – 50,000+ customers.

• Inconsistent event venues and production values. Requires multiple vendor coordination.

• 50,000 customers @ 8 events - in the pits – with the drivers and the cars.• 10 million high net worth vintage car owners – one global platform. • The Vintage Racing League delivers a unique, globally branded experience to

customers that are jaded by current entertainment options.

• To connect our Sponsors and Advertisers with their target high net worth customers, we’re growing the world’s largest online community for people that love vintage cars – see www.myvrl.com.

• Members can post pictures, videos & podcasts; access a “Central Market” of information about Apparel, Parts, Services & Cars; and join Owner and Member Groups that are specific to their areas of interest. Additionally, they can locate events in their area and obtain a detailed roadmap describing “How to get into Vintage Racing”.

• Our Social Network objective is to create trusted marketing relationships with our members. During the member enrollment process, we will ask key questions to include:

• Who are you and how should we communicate with you?• What do you own today and what would you like to do?• What would you like to own and what would you like to do

in the future?• We will very selectively deliver messages to our members, per

their declared areas of interest and intent. Timely buyer preference information is the most highly valued by our Sponsors and Advertisers.
