EVENT: Heat: Pedal to the Metal Grand Prix [9/28]

Heat: Pedal to the Metal September ‘24 Grand Prix

Calling all racers! A new Formula 1 championship series is coming to Games of Berkeley. Join us for the first monthly Heat: Pedal to the Metal Grand Prix taking place on Saturday September 28th.

Registration is $10. The Grand Prix officially begins at 1:00 PM and running until 5:00 or 6:00 PM with a short break in between races. The winner and runner-up will receive $25 and $10 gift cards to Games of Berkeley respectively.

Heat: Pedal to the Metal is a tabletop board game that simulates classic F1 races. Based on simple and intuitive hand management, Heat: Pedal to the Metal puts you in the driver's seat of intense car races, jockeying for position to cross the finish line first, while managing your car's speed if you don't want to overheat. Selecting the right upgrades for your car will help you hug the curves and keep your engine cool enough to maintain top speeds. Ultimately, your driving skills will be the key to victory. No prior experience with the game is necessary and beginners and young racers are encouraged to come try it out. Our host, Sam, will go over the rules for new players beginning around 12:30 PM and we’ll take a quick practice lap so we’re all ready to drop the flag on the first race shortly after 1:00 PM.

We will use all standard and advanced rules for Heat: Pedal to the Metal, including weather and road conditions, as well as Heavy Rain expansion rules. The structure of the Grand Prix will be based on the Championship System rules with slight modifications to incorporate the new expansion maps. Peruse the Heat rulebook here.
