Today we received the first information about the Torpedo Run 2008:
This years’ Torpedo Run will be held between 12th September 2008 and 14th September 2008. With the start in Ahaus, North of Düsseldorf (Germany), and end in St. Tropez (France) at the Mediterranean coast, you can look forward to an extraordinary mobile party. Torpedo Run gives you a weekend of sheer fun: action-packed events, awsome locations, amazing views and breathtaking mountain passes. In addition culinary pleasures, luxury hotels and stylish parties. New challenges and exclusive events are going to await you at all times.
During the Torpedo Run you experience several European countries. Starting in Ahaus you drive across the Benelux countries to Paris, the luxury capital of France. From thence across the land of the volcanos to Lyon. Before arriving at St. Tropez, the embodiment of jet set tourism, you will experience thrilling mountain roads and impressive massifs. Each night you will stay in luxury hotels, revel in culinary pleasures and celebrate eccentric parties. Torpedo Run is not a race, it’s about passion. There is no timing and no competition. Nobody is pressed for time to enjoy the whole event. So we got the official go of the government and administrative authority.
The locations and venues this year are something not to be missed. The motto “Torpedo Run in the altitudes� runs through the events. Teams who have already participated in the Torpedo Run know that we organize superb events coming along with a lot of fun. We bring a wealth of experience: Torpedo Run already takes place for the fourth year in succession.
The sign-in takes place at our favourite starting location: the Tobit.Elements in Ahaus, Germany. The simulators allow unlimited twists of 360 degrees over the roll as well as over the pitch axes. On the first day we drive from Ahaus (Germany) to Paris, the impressive capital of France. This fascinating metropolis has its own legendary charme and belongs to one of the most beautiful cities in the world. This luxury city is known for glamour, culinary extravaganze and world-famous historic sites, e. g. the Eiffel Tower. But before arriving in Paris the participants can look forward to an altitude event loaded with action and fun – probably in a way you have not experienced before.
The myth of Paris is also formed by the attractive nighlife. The Torpedo Runners will get to know it in a gorgeous way. Days and nights during the Torpedo Run shall remain unforgettable! From Paris the Torpedo Run continues to the land of the volcanos, a circumscription for the the big Massif Central mountains fascinating by extincted volcanos, glittering crater lakes, impressive volcanic cones and wild gorges. Already the streets of the Massif Central offer drivers a lot of fun. But the Torpedo Run stops in the mountains for a breath-taking event. From thence the Torpedo Runners drive to Lyon, the the French capital of gastronomy. Reasons enough to taste the delicous gourmet food – a pleasure for the fastidious palates. Furthermore Lyon is the number 2 of France concerning the variety of nightlife. There we will celebrate a wild party and stay gorgeous overnight.
Torpedo Run follows the roads to elegant St. Tropez. But before arriving at the Mediterranean coast we will spectacularly conquer the winding and attractive mountain roads of the Western Alps. It is hard to describe the amazing scenery. You have to experience it by yourself – like the daily event located in the mountains. Though we are still keeping some surprises. St. Tropez, located on the French Riviera, is the embodiment of jet set tourism. The town, known for its famous guests, offers the perfect atmosphere for the Grand Final, including a delicious gala dinner, where we can exchange our experiences of a great weekend.
Whoever thinks they have the determination for it, should consider the Torpedo Run!
