P1 RACE SERIES RETURNS TO JACKSONVILLE

P1 Superstock and AquaX racers are heading back to the St. John’s River for the 2nd consecutive season.

<1r>The series made its debut last June, which broke a 25 year calm in the waters of boat racing for the city of Jacksonville. “We are thrilled to welcome back the P1 Jacksonville Grand Prix of the Sea,” said Dave Herrell, Sports Entertainment Officer. “This event is a unique opportunity to activate our beloved St. Johns River and accelerate Jacksonville’s brand to an international audience. This year’s event will once again prove that Jacksonville is one of the best destinations for sporting events.”

The racers will be launching their boats and skis on the St. John’s River (in front of Memorial Park) on Saturday and Sunday, June 6th and 7th. This is the first round of the 2015 Superstock Championship and the 2nd for AquaX. The Jacksonville River Rally Poker run will also be taking place this weekend on the 4th – 6th. 5,000+ spectators are projected to come out for this action packed weekend of fun on the water.

“Jacksonville is a marquee event for Powerboat P1. Going into our 2nd year, we are growing and building this event and we could not do this without the tremendous support that we receive from the city and the local community.” - P1 USA Director, Azam Rangoonwala.
