First Prize is a KYMCO UXV 500 Side X Side Off Road Vehicle and there are two Second Prizes: KYMCO Driver Autographed Super 8 49cc Scooters.

"We are so happy to be able to work with the IZOD IndyCar Series on this promotion and further integrate our fan bases," said Rick Pawelka, KYMCO USA Marketing Director. "The IZOD IndyCar Series drivers have been very enthusiastic about our product and really enjoyed signing the two scooters we're giving away. I've been working closely with Ryan Hunter-Reay and he is excited about this opportunity as well. You'll see a lot of him during this promotion."

"I am thrilled to be involved with KYMCO and this promotion. I've been riding KYMCO scooters since they partnered with the IZOD IndyCar Series last year and have really enjoyed them. I'm excited to help make this promotion happen and get more involved with the fans," added Hunter-Reay.
