A PASSPORT TO TRAVEL IN THE FIREBALL RUN

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS Orlando, Florida– Announcing Passport Transport, the official vehicle transporter of the 2012 FIREBALL RUN Adventurally, “Northern Exposure”.

Since 1970 Passport Transport has shipped thousands of treasured vehicles door-to-door safely within enclosed auto transporters like the ones delivering to Independence, OH and retrieving from Bangor, ME as part of the Fireball Run Adventurally. Not unlike the rally cars in the Fireball Run, an up-to-the-minute GPS tracking system allows Passport to know where vehicles are at all times.

“We are excited about the opportunity to be the official transporter for the Fireball Run Adventurally. Those participants whom are not already customers will get a chance to see the difference using Passport makes… and Fireball Run’s Race to Recover America’s Missing Children is such a noble cause, we naturally wanted to do anything we could to help.”   -Neil Pitt, President, Passport Transport

“We were aware of Passport Transport’s fantastic staff and great track record through the many annual concours we both attend and felt it only natural to reach out to them as a partner.”

                                                               -David Hickman, EVP Fireball Run

The FIREBALL RUN Adventurally, presented by LuxuryLifestyle.com, is a national live event and film series, headquartered at Universal Studios. The 8-day, 14 city, 2,200 mile interactive road rally competition and entertainment property supports the Race to Recovery of America’s Missing Children.

The Race to Recover America’s Missing Children is the largest active recovery effort for missing and exploited children in the country. Each team is assigned a missing child from their home region along with thousands of posters to distribute along the route.

Participants range from businesses and elected leaders to celebrities. Past notable drivers include Jeffrey Donovan star of Burn Notice, Lamborghini legend Valentino Balboni, NASCAR’s Geoff Bodine and NASA Shuttle Captain Winston Scott. The 2012 Adventurally features women in professional sports as part of the notable cast.
