PICKERINGTON, Ohio - One of the biggest weekends in motorcycling -- Daytona Bike Week -- will include AMA amateur dirt track races for half-mile and short-track events, the American Motorcyclist Association announced.
In addition to events in the AMA All-Star Flat Track National Championship Series, the week will feature AMA Amateur Dirt Track Holeshot races and rounds of the AMA Vintage Dirt Track National Championship Series.
"Motorcyclists from all disciplines converge on Daytona Bike Week for good reason: In early March, this is racing central," said AMA Track Racing Manager Ken Saillant. "Dirt track is no exception, and we're looking forward to kicking off the season with some great racing at one of the country's most historic locations for motorcycle competition."
Promoters Steve Nace of Steve Nace Racing and Dave Joiner of Fast Fridays are involved with the dirt track events, AMA noted.
