custom props, tv, lighting, and incorporation of Compuware on the car
Decorating the Event
The overall car racing theme should emit a feeling of actually being at a race track. One really great idea is to place a few television sets around the room showing some of the more popular race car themed movies, such as Days of Thunder, NASCAR – The IMAX Experience, and Talladega Nights. Also, place black and white flags/balloons throughout the venue to add to the overall party atmosphere.

Floor. Using a black and white checkered floor pattern is a really great idea and adds greatly to the overall racing car theme.
Walls. Consider using Spandex Walls to add the corporate logo or display a race car related message/photo for the audience to view.
Lighting. Use red, yellow, and green lights throughout the venue to emanate the stop, slow down, and go lights used during a car race.

Fun & Games
Let your guests know that you want them to have fun by initiating some games for them to play throughout the corporate event.
- If an actual race is taking place at the time of the corporate party, have guests draw entrants names out of a bowl. If the driver they pick wins, give them two tickets to the next racing car event held nearby.
- Set up a mini track and let guests race remote control cars around the track with the winner receiving a special prize.
- Set up an area where guests can play racing car games, such as on PlayStation, with the winner being the person who gets the top score of the night.
