Road Warrior Weekend 2025 Crosses the Finish Line: Auto Value and Bumper to Bumper Wrap Up Unforgettable Experience
The engines may be off, but the memories are still racing. The 2025 Road Warrior Weekend Sweepstakes officially crossed the finish line this October – and what a ride it was. Auto Value and Bumper to Bumper proudly wrapped up an unforgettable high-performance adventure at the legendary Radford Racing School in Chandler, Arizona, where 40 lucky winners became true road warriors out in the desert with two full days of intense hands-on driving.
From behind the wheel of high-powered machines to the camaraderie shared off the track, the Road Warrior Weekend was more than a sweepstakes – it was a celebration of skill, speed, and the relationships that drive the aftermarket industry forward.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better group of winners or a more exhilarating experience,” said Jim Holik, Director of Marketing at the Aftermarket Auto Parts Alliance, Inc. “The Road Warrior Weekend was the perfect blend of adrenaline, education, and industry connections. Thank you to all our sponsors who helped make this event possible.”
Over the course of three days attendees immersed themselves in the world of professional performance driving, experiencing everything from lead-and-follow sessions to high-speed slalom courses, expert instruction, and hot laps with Radford’s elite instructors. When the helmets came off, the experience continued with luxury accommodations, exclusive evening receptions, and a special night of food and entertainment at the iconic Rawhide Western Town, proudly sponsored by BCA Bearings by NTN.
“This trip was nothing but exceptional, top to bottom every detail was covered. I’ll confidently speak for everyone – we all felt like rockstars out there,” said Greg Millevoi of Millevoi Brothers Auto Center a customer of Eastern Warehouse Distributors. “The driving was intense, fun competition on the track, and the interactions between everyone was what made this event extra special. Great group of folks and an amazing experience all courtesy of our parts suppliers.”
This once-in-a-lifetime motorsport experience capped off a highly successful Spring promotion, which also saw 150 additional winners take home a share of $25,000 in gift cards. The sweepstakes, facilitated through the MyPlace4Parts B2B ecommerce platform, provided entries with every qualifying purchase invoice, and bonus entries for every $150 daily increment through the platform.
“Supporting the 2025 Road Warrior Weekend was an incredible opportunity for BCA Bearings by NTN to connect with the technicians and professionals who drive this industry forward every day,” said Georgianne Dickey, Director of Marketing, at BCA Bearings by NTN. “From the energy on the track to the conversations off it, this event truly captured the spirit of performance, partnership, and appreciation. We’re proud to stand alongside Auto Value and Bumper to Bumper in delivering an experience that celebrates and gives back to the people who keep the wheels turning.”
As the sun sets on Chandler and the tires cool down, one thing is clear: the 2025 Road Warrior Weekend delivered lasting memories, forged strong industry relationships, and left participants already revving for what’s next.
Congratulations again to all our winners — and thank you to everyone who helped make this journey one for the record books.
