Official 2006 ATVA National Motocross Schedule
Announced
14-race ATV Nationals Series begins in February and
ends in September
Morgantown, WV (11/2/05)
– The ATV National Promoters, in conjunction with
the All Terrain Vehicle Association (ATVA), have announced
the official schedule for the 2006 ATV National Motocross
Championships. The tentative schedule released previously
has been revised based on feedback from racers, sponsors
and teams.
The second round of the series, The Wrangler at Oak
Hill Motocross Park in Texas, has been moved to February
11 and 12 to clear the weekend of February 18 and 19
for the Indianapolis Tradeshow. ATV industry companies
and sponsors requested a free weekend in order to attend
the Indy show. The Texas round now takes place on the
weekend after the opening round at Glen Helen Raceway
in California. In order to hold a true national championship,
it is critical to hold races in the California and Texas
markets, and combining them into back-to-back weekends
will allow racers from the East to make both races in
one week-long trip.
In addition, round three of the series at Gatorback
Cycle Park had been moved back one week, now taking
place at the end of Daytona Bike Week.
The 2006 ATVA National MX Series schedule removes most
conflicts with the Grand National Cross Country (GNCC)
ATV Series. Sponsors, riders and manufacturers requested
that the two series do not conflict, and this year only
one of the 14 MX rounds will run on the same weekend
as a GNCC.
Five new locations make up the expanded 2006 tour.
Oak Hill MX in Alvord, Texas will hold an ATVA MX National
for the first time, as well as Mill Creek MX in Pell
City, Alabama, Sunset Ridge MX in Walnut, Illinois,
and Ballance MX in Bowling Green Kentucky. In addition,
the traditional High Point ATV Stampede in Mount Morris,
Pennsylvania has been moved to Steel City Raceway in
Delmont, Pennsylvania for 2006, due to High Point hosting
a Loretta Lynn’s Regional Championship for motorcycles.
