“Holding Las Vegas’ fastest gamer at G2E will not only introduce Gear.Club to a new audience, it will raise the excitement level at the conference by providing a true automotive racing experience for great prizes,” said Millennial Esports Executive Chairman, Alex Igelman. “G2E is known across the globe as the world’s premiere gaming tournament and we’re thrilled to be able to add value to the attendees.”

The first and second place finishers in the Las Vegas’ Fastest Gamer contest will receive a 64 GB Razer mobile phone, while the competitors with the eight fastest times will also receive Gamevice controllers.
