Fluge Global Adventures

Nick Fluge and Bill Lowblad driving the FGA Saleen “Bad Boy” Mustang and the Perlinger sisters in the FGA Bentley GT, began the Great American Run week by arriving in New York, dealing with Paparazzi, and even attending  a GAR party at one of the city’s hottest night clubs; Cain on Friday.  They were accompanied by none other than event organizer Tim Porter and a few hundred other Socialites, Celebrities, and Motorheads.

The Rally began late on Saturday (to give the teams adequate recovery) from Friday nights’ events.  All cars left Central Parks’ famous Tavern on the Green at 6pm. 

The first leg of the rally took the contestants through the beautiful but treacherous winding roads of the Poconos.  It continued through Pennsylvania, Ohio and concluded in Indianapolis. 

The average driving time was about 17 hours - that left few opportunities for breaks especially given the departure from Manhatten.  Both the FGA cars finished in just over 15 hours however and stand amongst the leaders at the end of the first leg.

The journey continues with stops in Tulsa, Denver, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.  Stay tuned…

The UK press, home of Tim ‘Maverick’ Porter, organizer of the world’s largest road rally, The Great American Run (July 29-August 2), have begun labeling the Perlinger sisters the “Sexy Librarian and the Playboy Bunny” all girls team.Aimee and Ashley are the 2nd FlugeGlobalAdventure entrant in the cross country road rally which begins in New York (Time Square) and runs through the country to Las Vegas and then concludes five grueling days later in Los Angeles.

The pair will be driving a Bentley GT and be dueling not just Bill Lowblad and FGA Lead Adventurer, Nick Fluge in the “Bad Boy” Saleen Mustang, but also 400 other competitors from around the globe.

The event tests man, woman, machine, and party!

Sisters Aimee and Ashley Perlinger are ready to take on the 3000 mile run in late July in a Bentley GT. Don’t worry, as they will be at the parties each night given their rally participation, they aren’t competing for the FGA ‘Best Photo’ Contest.

You still have until June 15th to get your FGA “Show Us Your Fluge” entries in!
