MAHLE Aftermarket Inc. has announced the “MAHLExRTR” Social Media Promotion featuring a grand-prize trip for the winner and a guest to round one of the 2019 Formula Drift championship April 4-5 in at Long Beach, California. The winner also will experience a “ride-along” with RTR Motorsports Drift Team drivers Vaughn Gittin Jr. or Chelsea DeNofa.

Ten additional winners will receive a MAHLE/RTR Drift Team merchandise prize package. Contestants may enter by “liking” and “reposting” the MAHLExRTR promotional video or any other promotional content that appears on MAHLE, RTR, Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Chelsea DeNofa’s social media channels, using the hashtag #MAHLExRTR. The deadline for entry is 11:59 p.m. EDT on Thursday, March 14.
