Tom Kjos thinks this is the biggest news of the year. Based on observations of photographers' behavioural tendencies at Le Mans, he could be right.
Hawaiian Tropic has joined with the American Le Mans Series in a new agreement that will bring its promotional models to all series events, beginning with Audi presents Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta on October 6.
Hawaiian Tropic's models have indeed been a media magnet every year at Le Mans since 1979. Drawing crowds and media exposure wherever they have been at the French racing classic, the models have had a presence in both the driver's parade and in pre-race promotional activities and have served as goodwill ambassadors for teams and drivers.
Four Hawaiian Tropic models will attend every ALMS event. In addition to participating in such pre-race activities as starting grid ceremonies, the models will also hold autograph sessions and make special appearances at all events. The models will all be contestants from the popular Miss Hawaiian Tropic United States and Miss Hawaiian Tropic International pageants.
"Our 22-year history with the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and my personal love for racing is something that I am extremely proud of and an area in which we have been looking for ways to expand," said Ron Rice, owner and founder of Hawaiian Tropic.
