Gearing up for the release of Skylanders SuperChargers will include some amazing events. For one thing Max Chilton will be racing the Mazda Raceway in a Skylanders SuperCharged Vehicle this weekend. I can’t wait to see what the car is going to look like. Will it be one character or a whole bunch of them?

SKYLANDERS PARTNERS WITH CARLIN RACE CAR DRIVER MAX CHILTON TO SUPERCHARGE THE INDY LIGHTS CHAMPIONSHIP!
Max Chilton Takes on Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in a Skylanders® SuperCharged Vehicle during Season Finale of Indy Lights Championship on September 12-13!

MONTEREY, Calif. – September 10, 2015 – Start your engines! Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATVI), proudly announces that Skylanders®, the number 1 kids’ console game in the world1, is the official partner of Max Chilton for the season finale of Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tires, part of the Mazda Road to Indy. The partnership takes Skylanders SuperChargers’ latest innovation of vehicles-to-life — and revs up one of the games’ newest features, racing. Chilton, a 24-year-old former Formula 1 driver and fan of the Skylanders franchise, will blaze the tracks of Laguna Seca in a Skylanders supercharged-themed race car on September 12-13.

“It’s great to once again be working with the team from Skylanders to support the launch of their new Skylanders SuperChargers game. This follows an event we did together recently in Germany at the Gamescom conference. I’m excited to have developed the relationship and bring it into my racing. At Laguna Seca this weekend, my Indy car will be branded with SuperChargers livery as part of a number of media and digital promotions,” said Max Chilton. “The Skylanders SuperChargers game is all about speed, reactions and of course winning, so there are obvious parallels to real life racing, albeit I can’t grab powerups or slow other drivers down with a laser cannon! I’m hoping for a strong finish to the season and targeting another podium or a win to round off the year with Carlin.” Continue reading Max Chilton to Race Indy Lights Finale in a Skylanders SuperChargers Themed Vehicle →
