OVAL RACING AND BATTLE OF THE SEXES ARE BACK AT PGP THIS WEEK

KENT, Wash. — (June 19, 2012) Variety is the spice of life, and this week at PGP we've got a couple events that are sure to get your motors revving with the return of Oval Racing and our version of the Battle of the Sexes.

Oval Racing returns Wednesday

Back by popular demand, this exciting form of karting will put your racing skills to the test.

Think its easy just turning one direction? Think again, as one mistake and you'll watch the rest of the field pass by in a blur. The racing is close and the fun level is off the charts.

Registration starts at 5 p.m. with racing at 6 .m. We'll give you four track sessions: practice, qualifying, heat race and final event. Cost is $75.

Who will win the Battle of the Sexes?

Grab whoever you want of the opposite sex — friend, spouse, significant other or relative — and come out to PGP Friday night to see which gender will rule PGP after the Battle of the Sexes (former Speed Dating).

Each team of one guy and one gal will compete against the other teams, girls vs. girls and boys vs. boys, in alternating track sessions (two each). We'll add both drivers' times together to determine the winning pair.

Cost is $99 per pair and minimum age is 18. Pre-registration is required and will close Thursday at 5 p.m. using this form.
