From a press release issued by event co-organizer Wendy Hogg:

Last chance looms for Pit Daddy party tickets

It’s almost here. The most anticipated championship of the 2003 motorcycle racing season – the Pit Daddy beauty pageant – will be run and won at Virginia International Raceway, Sunday August 31.

Dinner and raffle sales are available at the Parts Unlimited truck in the paddock area during the VIR race weekend.

For just $25 you’ll get a buffet feast, three drinks (your choice of Corona beer, wine or soft drinks), and a show you’ll never forget.

This year’s pageant promises to be an exciting one with stiff competition from around the globe. Thirty-seven entrants will take to the stage and only one will leave with the Pit Daddy crown, designed by none other than Lee Bivens. Italian Giovani Bussei has joined the line-up, though it’s not entirely certain he knows what he’s getting into. Though Eric Bostrom is out with an injury, Ben is certain to hold the family’s flag high. And last year’s winner, Chuck Sorensen, is back to please the crowd.

Girls, don’t forget your $1 bills for dance tips. Ducshop Performance Center has generously offered to match whatever money the riders make on the night and an award will be given to the rider who raises the most.

Great new additions to the prize pot are still pouring in. Both the American Honda and Parts Unlimited teams have donated a team shirt signed by their riders and the Fortuna Yamaha MotoGP team has sent a cap signed by Checa and Melandri. And that’s only scratching the surface of the many items donated to the Pit Daddy raffle.

Money raised by the competition so far exceeds $10,000 and organizers hope to raise double that for the Clayton Memorial Foundation, helping injured riders.

Who’s Your Daddy?
