I met many spectators this weekendthat had never seen an ATV race before the WPSA came into town. They all expressed how much they enjoyed the racing and were even more drawn in after they experienced the family orientation of ATV Racing. For many young kids, whether it was their first or 100th race, they were all excited to get their favorite riders autographs.
