When an RC car brand turns its anniversary into a national experience

A case study of an immersive marketing campaign

There are projects that remind us why we do what we do.
Exost – a French RC car brand from the Silverlit group – is one of them.

To celebrate its 10th anniversary, the brand didn’t take the usual route of a TV ad or a commemorative post. It chose to live up to its promise instead: movement.

šŸ An anniversary celebrated on the roads of France

It all started with a simple idea: bringing the brand to life on its own playground – speed.

Throughout the summer, the RC Grand Prix travelled through 13 cities, culminating in a grand finale in Paris during Play in Paris. A travelling tour on a massive 120 m² circuit where anyone could become a driver for a day.

But the experience didn’t stop at the track.
We wanted the race to keep going… online.

The website: a digital race in its own right

Creating a website for an event is one thing.
Creating a website that delivers the same adrenaline rush as the racetrack is another.

Our mission was to make digital a natural extension of the physical experience – a place where every scroll evokes the speed, precision, and competitive spirit that define Exost.

1. Immersive experience

Objective:

  • Create a browsing experience that evokes the feeling of racing.
  • Use design and interactivity as an emotional language.

Result:

  • Animated cars on scroll, a circular menu inspired by wheels, and a ā€œfinish lineā€ effect in the footer.
  • 4.5 minutes average navigation time per page.
  • 0.4-second loading time, ensuring a smooth and high-performance experience.

2. Daily leaderboard and gallery

Objective:

  • Encourage users to return to the website.
  • Create a daily ritual with regularly updated content.

Result:

  • 10% of visitors returned multiple times to follow the tour.

3. Admin interface for organizers

Objective:

  • Enable on-site teams to easily update information.
  • Streamline event management, even on the move.

Result:

  • Organizers were able to update scores, photos, and city information in real time, directly from their phones.

4. Email campaign

Objective:

  • Extend the relationship beyond the event.
  • Guide registered users and participants throughout the tournament.

Result:

  • 75% open rate and 20% click rate.
  • An engaged, loyal community that stays connected to the brand.

5. Three versions of the website

Objective:

Sustain attention over time and encourage return visits.
Adapt content to each stage of the project.

Result:

Three variations: tournament version, final version, and Christmas version.
A dynamic campaign that continues to evolve with the brand.
