If you work for a company that sells Flex-a-lite products there is still time to enter the FLEXCAT sweepstakes (contest ends September 1) and have a chance to win Flex-a-lite's custom 2002 Acura RSX project car and a trip to the SEMA Show (roundtrip airfare and hotel accommodations) in Las Vegas.

If you work for a company that sells Flex-a-lite products you can enter the sweepstakes at www.FLEXCATsweepstakes.com.

Ten preliminary winners have been selected each month by a random drawing since December of 2006. If your catalog number is posted on the website, you must log in and answer a series of questions from the Flex-a-lite catalog, price sheet and website to complete registration for the RSX Sweepstakes. The contest ends at midnight, Pacific Standard Time on September 1, 2007.

On September 12, 2007 the three finalists will be chosen by a random drawing and contacted on that day. The three finalists will be flown to the SEMA Show in Las Vegas where the Grand Prize Winner will be selected and announced on October 30, 2007 at the Flex-a-lite exhibit.

The Grand Prize is a very special vehicle — a custom 2002 Acura RSX (condition is used with mileage, as-is, no warranty) that was modified by 1320 Motorsports and was named the "Best All-Around Performer" in Sport Compact Car magazine's "Battle of the RSXs" which appeared in the June 2002 issue of that magazine.

The FAL Project RSX features AEM intake, Nitrous Oxide Systems Wet-Fogger system, Centerforce clutch system, B&G coilover suspension front and rear, Energy Suspension bushings, EBS greenstuff brake pads, and Enkei 16-inch alloy wheels with Toyo RA1 tires. The vehicle's exterior has been fitted with a C-West body kit and wing and features custom graphics by Modern Image.

Performance of the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine has been upgraded to a measured 225 horsepower at the front wheels. Zero to 60 mph acceleration time is 5.6 seconds and Project RSX covers the quarter-mile in 13.7 seconds at 104.8 mph.
