Updates to Pro Motocross and GNCC Schedules

Lucas Oil Pro Motocross:
Due to regulatory concerns it was necessary to relocate the pro racing program of the Washougal National. The amateur racing program at Washougal will proceed as scheduled this weekend. However, the Pro racing program has been moved to Loretta Lynn’s for a back-to-back national. There will be no amateur racing program at this Loretta Lynn’s National.

The remainder of the schedule is:
Aug 22 Loretta Lynn's X2 Hurricane Mills, TN
Aug 29 Ironman Crawfordsville, IN
Sep 4 (Fri) RedBud I Buchanan, MI
Sep 7 (Mon) RedBud II Buchanan, MI
Sep 19 Spring Creek Millville, MN
Sep 26 WW Ranch Jacksonville, FL
Oct 3 Thunder Valley Lakewood, CO
Oct 10 Fox Raceway Pala, CA

All events will be conducted in compliance with face covering guidelines as locally appropriate and required and social distancing when possible.

GNCC Racing:
Earlier Snowshoe Mountain Resort, the location of the 10th round of the GNCC Racing Series, notified the GNCC Racing Series that due to COVID19 concerns, it will not be able to host the Snowshoe GNCC scheduled for September 26/27. Accordingly, the September 26/27 GNCC Race has been moved to Millfield, Ohio for the Burr Oaks GNCC. This is the same location as the John Penton GNCC previously held on June 27/28.

The remaining rounds are as follows.

Sept. 12/13 Mountaineer, Beckley, WV
Sept. 26/27 Burr Oaks, Millfield, OH
Oct. 10/11 Mason-Dixon, Taylortown, PA
Oct. 24/25 Ironman, Crawfordsville, IN
Nov. 7/8 TBA


All events will be conducted in compliance with face covering guidelines as locally appropriate and required and social distancing when possible.

About the Race Leadership Team:
The RLT consists of representatives from the AMA, MX Sports and MX Sports Pro Racing. The RLT will reconvene next Monday to review race schedules, making adjustments as needed, and will work with event organizers to reschedule events when possible.

The RLT continues to urge racing families to use common sense: 1) wash your hands often; 2) avoid shaking hands or coming into close personal contact with others; 3) cough into your elbow; 4) don’t touch your face; 5) if you are sick, stay home; 6) if you are really sick, go to the hospital; and 7) don’t panic. The health, safety and welfare of our riders and their families remains paramount, and we will keep our race community apprised of all further developments.
