About PIST6
PIST6 is a new Keirin event (Koei Kyogi) that began in Chiba in October 2021. It is a new world-standard cycle Track race, originating in Chiba and the first of its kind in Japan, based on the rules of Keirin, a bicycle race in which riders complete six laps around a 250m Track and compete for first place. Unlike previous Keirin, it is held in an international stadium and under international rules similar to those of the Olympics, making it a new form of sports entertainment.

■About Atarundesu
Based on the Small Automobile Racing Act under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, this is a multiple-win betting ticket that allows you to enjoy Koei Kyogi (auto races) organized by local governments in a lottery-like manner. Sales from "Atarundesu" are used to contribute to local finances, promote the mechanical industry, and improve social welfare, after deducting the necessary expenses for paying refunds to winners and operating the official website and related systems.
