“We’re excited to host our very first ATV Motocross National at Spring Creek,” said seasoned AMA National Motocross promoter John Martin. “Minnesota and Wisconsin have an active community of quad participation, so once riders find out the top Pro and amateur riders are coming to town, it’s going to draw an amazing group of local talent and fans.”

Another addition to the schedule is an eleventh points-paying amateur round.  Last year’s season consisted of 10 amateur rounds and 11 pro rounds – the difference being the pro-only opening round in Glen Helen, San Bernardino, CA.  For the first time in years, the tour will not open in California.

“Since 2004, Glen Helen Raceway has hosted the opening round of the Championship Series and we hope to return when the economy for our motorsports industry rebounds,” said ATVPG Director, Sam Gammon.

With the addition of the 11^th amateur round, the amateurs will have one more throw-away, i.e., the best 8 out of 11 races will count towards series championship points.  All rounds will continue to count towards the Pro and Pro-Am class championships.

Factory Can Am Warnet Racing’s Cody Miller had a great season! He was up in the top 10 all season! Cody finished 9th place overall in his second year in the Pro ranks with one podium finish under his belt!! Great job Cody!

Hot on Cody’s heels was Factory Yamaha’s Thomas Brown. His hard charging riding style made him a stand out rider in his rookie year in the pro class. These Texas boys should be stealing the spotlight in the pro class very soon!

In the Pro AM Unlimited class Chase Snapp made his presence known at the nationals with strong finishes all year including a few podium spots and an overall win at the last round of racing at Loretta Lynn’s. Chase landed himself the Third position overall in points this year in Pro AM Production and fourth overall in the Pro Am Unlimited class.

Congratulations to all our ATVA AMA National Racers! We cant wait to see what next year brings for everyone!
