An Uncle Bob's Self Storage facility in Austin, Texas, is hosting a go-kart racing event on Sept. 19 and a contest in which entrants will have the chance to win pit passes and tickets to the Sept. 20 Tudor Cup Lone Star Le Mans race at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin. The storage company is partnering with 98.1 KVET FM and 96.7 Kiss FM to give away two “hot” pit passes to the race as well as access to AIM Autosport Team pit and the Ferrari co-sponsored by Uncle Bob’s and Revo, a sunglasses manufacturer. Winners will enjoy hospitality and an AIM Autosport-themed gift.

The Uncle Bob's Sports Car Challenge at K1 Speed go-kart racing track at 2500 McHale Court will take place 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Three pairs of tickets to the Le Mans race will be given away. Attendees will also have the chance to race against International Motor Sports Association Tudor Cup pro drivers Townsend Bell and Bill Sweedler of AIM Autosport, and Boris Said and Eric Curran of Whelen Motorsports. Not only will they compete for a chance to race on a team with the pro drivers, they can buy one race and get one for free from 8-9 p.m.
