PAYSON, UT (May 25, 2016) – The Rocky Mountain ATV/MC AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship is celebrating its 35th
anniversary this year, and the journey to this prestigious amateur
event continues for the sport’s up-and-coming riders. The first Regional
Championships begin May 28th and will continue every weekend until June
26th. The regional winners will then compete at the National
Championships held at Loretta Lynn Ranch on August 1st - 6th.
Area
Qualifiers have taken place from February to May in 55 different venues
across the United States. Riders who have qualified are eligible to
participate in their corresponding Regional Championship. A total of 13
Regional Championships will be held in eight regions. This year, the
Regional Championships will begin with Muddy Creek in TN and Washougal
in WA.
Riders
who earned a qualifying spot from their results in an Area Qualifier
must pre-register online for the corresponding Regional Championship in
order to guarantee their spot. Riders will receive a Rocky Mountain
ATV/MC $20 gift card for each Regional Championship they pre-register
for. This is part of the Race Gas Fast Track program sponsored by Rocky
Mountain ATV/MC. Gift cards are mailed to eligible racers after each
Regional Championship has ended.
“Rocky
Mountain ATV/MC has reaffirmed their commitment to the Loretta Lynn
program,” said MX Sports Director Tim Cotter. “The Race Gas gift card
initiative has put tens of thousands of dollars back into amateur race
budgets. This program has been perhaps the most significant gift to
amateur racing families in recent memory.”
Those
who qualify at a Regional Championship will be eligible to race at
Loretta Lynn’s in the first week of August. Rocky Mountain ATV/MC serves
as the title sponsor for the event.
“The
road to Loretta Lynn’s is difficult, and we want to congratulate
everyone who has made it this far as well as wish them luck at the
Regional Championships,” said Dan Thomas, CEO and Founder of Rocky
Mountain ATV/MC. “We owe a lot to the amateur motocross riders across
the country, and we’re happy to be able to give back by serving as the
title sponsor for Loretta Lynn’s and by offering $20 gift cards through
the Race Gas Fast Track program at the Regional Championships.”
