'cause you are GOLD

Sorry to everyone if I have just embedded that song in your head. Can't beat a bit of Spandau Ballet to kick the afternoon off.
Moving on from 80's tunes I'm here to talk about a company called Racing Gold.
They make 'high quality' products, including art and furniture out of old components that you would normally expect to see on a Formula 1 car. Racing Gold now has linked with Red Bull Racing to produce unique pieces of art for us all to enjoy and purchase.
Below are just a couple of pieces that they make.

Coat Stand

Exhaust Lamp

But that's not all they do.

Racing Gold have teamed up with the charity Wings for Life for the Silverstone half marathon next month, and are holding a competition for someone lucky to win a gold plated gear. Can I get a 'Oooooo'?
All they are asking for, is for you to donate a minimum of £1! Yes you read that right. A POUND! To Wings for Life via the donation page:


You don't just have to donate a pound. Every little helps and it's all for a fantastic cause. 

As you donate to Wings for Life you will automatically be entered into the 'Guess the weight of the gold plated gear' competition. As a bonus, you will also be entered into the draw to win a polished Cosworth F1 engine valve.
Racing Gold have yet another offer. For every donation of £5 or over you will automatically receive a polished titanium shim. Not bad at all. 

The closing date is 11th March 2012 so you have less than 2 weeks to enter the competition.
