'Off to the Races' as SOC Exchange Auctions a Day with NASCAR Legend Bobby Allison at Pep Boys 500

NEW YORK, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- To officially launch its new state of the art auction capability, The SOC Exchange (www.thesocexchange.com) is auctioning off a chance to 'win a day at the races' with NASCAR legend Bobby Allison. The highest bidder will win an all expenses paid trip for two to spend a day with Bobby Allison at the Pep Boys 500 to be held at the Atlanta Motor Speedway during Labor Day weekend. Net proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Victory Junction Gang, a leading charity founded by Kyle and Pattie Petty.

The SOC Exchange is a leading e-commerce website that allows users to buy and sell items, post unlimited jobs, sell or rent real estate and sell unlimited cars or motorcycles for the flat rate fee of $10 per year. The auction capability is the latest in a series of innovations that The SOC Exchange has brought to e-commerce buy/sell sites. This includes the opportunity for members to sell online for the flat yearly fee of $10, eliminating the commissions and fees associated with other websites.

"The winning bidder will have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the excitement and action of a NASCAR race up close and personal," says Franco Lagudi, CEO of The SOC Exchange. "With the proceeds going to the Victory Junction Gang, this is a great opportunity to also support a very special charity."

The winning bidder and a guest will receive air travel and luxury accommodations for the evenings of the 4th and 5th of September. They will also take a personal tour with Bobby Allison through the NASCAR Garage and Pit area, see the drivers, crews and cars as they prepare for the race, and accompany Bobby Allison to a VIP suite where they will watch the race. Bidding ends at 2:00 PM EDT on August 17th.

"We are very excited to partner with The SOC Exchange on this exciting promotion," adds Bobby Allison, a NASCAR pioneer. "Attending a NASCAR race is always great fun, but to be able to take a behind the scenes look on race day is a very special experience."
