I don't think they have one.. But if it helps, they do refer to those other vehicles that you will see around the dragon as Crotch Rockets.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for visiting our http://www.kraftfoods.com/[ website and for your interest in our promotions and offers.
I wanted to get back to you about your question. I looked into our records and at this time we're not offering an item like the one you've described. We offer many promotions, offers and sweepstakes each year. The promotion you're describing could be something we offered some time ago.
If you're interested in our current promotions, offers or sweepstakes, check our product packaging, in stores and on the promotion section of our website.
It was great hearing from you, and remember we're always updating our site so visit us again soon!

OK - you guys got the "form letter", I got a little luckier. I got the following - get those pens and pencils warmed up!

Thank you for visiting our http://www.kraftfoods.com/ website and for your interest in our promotions and offers.

Due to the popularity of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile and the amount of miles the vehicles must cover in a year, it is difficult to fulfill many requests. However, all requests for the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile can be submitted in writing to the Oscar Mayer Mobile Marketing Department. There are three ways in which to submit a request:

By Mail:
Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Department
910 Mayer Ave.
Madison, WI 53704

By Fax:
Attn: Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Department
(608) 242-6108
By Email: wmrequest@kraft.com

All requests must include the event name, the date and time of the event, city & state, and a detailed description of the event.

The Mobile Marketing Department will review all requests and determine whether we are able to fulfill them. Requestors will be notified with a decision at least 30 days prior to the event.

Good luck on your search!

Dear Pamala,

Thanks for reaching out to Red Bull Energy Drink about this Mini-Cooper event.

I sent your request and info on to the area managers who make those decisions. We are receiving an unusually high volume of requests right now, so we're thanking everyone in advance for their patience.

Everyone is working as quickly as they can to get to all the requests, so if something can be arranged to support you guys, they will definitely be in touch.

It's a Red Bull advertising campaign slogan.

FWIW, last year the Red Bull MINI showed up at Fontana Village on Sunday as we were getting ready to leave. We didn't see them any during MOTD, though.

Here it is. We also didn't see it during MOTD, only when we were checking out Sun. morning. The guy even gave us a Red Bull. Still have it in the fridge. I don't know why..

What if we get a car that looks like a giant doughnut and have it drive through the Dragon ahead of us leading all the TN HP on a wild doughnut chase?

Does anyone know if Krispy Kreme or Dunkin Doughnuts have some sort of car like this?
