For the first time at the Spielwarenmesse International Toy Fair, Carrera will also be hosting the Carrera “Gentlemen’s Race” on the two first days of the trade fair. The point is to let the gorgeous and charming “Carrera Chicas” invite members of the audience to take part in a race. The winners, however, are those who don’t just look like a gentleman but act like one as well - with their courteous driving and by letting the lovely ladies win. As a reward, the gentleman of the hour can look forward to an extra special Carrera miniature hand controller-key ring. As part of the competition, all drivers can enter a draw after the race to win the strictly limited “Carrera Chica” Porsche 911 in 1:32 scale.
In 2009, Carrera will remain true to its proven product strategy and will be presenting popular vehicles from Germany and abroad, covering all important motor sports themes from Formula 1 to the Le Mans-Series right up to the DTM German Touring Car Championships.
