Mark Williams of Palmyra, Va., is the grand prize winner in the MAHLE Clevite “Find Clevite” promotion. Williams was awarded a NASCAR VIP Weekend for two to the final race of the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.

The contest, held online at www.FindClevite.com, started in May and concluded on Oct. 25. It was designed to help MAHLE Clevite celebrate its transition in 2008 to the MAHLE white decal from its legendary blue Clevite® decal throughout all of NASCAR.

“We congratulate Mark, a dedicated Jimmie Johnson fan, on his prize package,” says Ted Hughes, team leader – program development for MAHLE Clevite. “This special promotion has more than exceeded our expectations and provided us with the opportunity to announce to the aftermarket that Clevite is now part of MAHLE. Our goal was to let people to know that our success in performance is not just confined to engine bearings.”

In addition to the grand prize, 71 prizes were awarded during the contest including: GPS systems, MAHLE Clevite die cast cars, and MAHLE Clevite prize packs. A total of 418,000 entries were received.
