The most wonderful time of the year for car racing enthusiasts in Prince George is upon us.
PGARA is hosting its uber-popular hit to pass weekend Saturday and Sunday from the playground of power.
Spokesperson, Aaron Conn told MyPGNow.com it’s so popular, people are re-arranging their schedules just to come.
“The funny thing was is I was talking to an individual at dinner and just started talking to him and their daughter changed their vacation time to actually come here so that they can come in from out-of-town to watch hit to pass.”
Conn suggests people get their well in advance to secure a seat or a camping spot. The long lineups along the highway in recent years have now been kyboshed by the Ministry of Transportation leading to people buying camping spots online.
His advice is to show up early.
“We are expecting a good car count – we won’t know a final number until they cross the track but from my calculations there should be a few. It’s going to be a good weekend.”
“Last year, I hadn’t seen that many people in that place and I am hoping I see more and have a really good showing of people. Everything goes back to the race track as we make that place better and better.”
Racing starts at 7pm on Saturday and 1pm on Sunday.
PGARA’s Championship Finale is set for September 12th.
