ATV Motocross Racing Invades Muddy
Creek Raceway this Memorial Day Weekend
Round eight of the ATVA/ITP/Moose
ATV Motocross Nationals visits Tennessee on May 28
Top pros and amateurs will compete.
Blountville, TN (5/24/06) –After
an exciting round of racing at Red Bud in Michigan where
John Natalie Jr earned his second overall win of the season
and moved within four points of Joe Byrd in Pro Points
Lead, the ATVA Motocross National Series heads south to
Muddy Creek Raceway in Blountville, TN on May 26-28th.
Unlike rainy and muddy conditions found at Red Bud, the
weather is looking picture perfect for this Memorial Day
weekend of racing at Muddy Creek.
The Muddy Creek Raceway has been recognized as one
of the top three tracks in the nation by Motocross Action
Magazine. This event is one of the most anticipated
rounds of the series thanks to hill-top spectator areas
which provide a bird's eye view of all the racing action.
Race promoter Victory Sports has reversed the direction
of the track for 2006 along with making other numerous
changes to the track layout.
To kick off the weekend’s festivities, Team Suzuki
/ Yoshimura’s Doug Gust & Jeremiah Jones will
be signing autographs on Thursday May 25th (3:00 to
5:00pm) during Atlas Cycle Suzuki’s Open House
in Bristol, VA. Also, there will be free food and a
new SUZUKI Z-250 is going to be given away to one lucky
visitor. Atlas Cycle is just 17 miles from the track
and is located right off I-81 at exit # 5 in Virginia.
Local riders are invited to race in one of the 31 classes
available for riders of all skill and experience levels.
Riders can sign up at the track. Practice begins on
Friday with amateur racing action on Saturday and Sunday.
Pro riders practice on Saturday and race twice on Sunday,
at 12 pm and 3 pm.
Spectators are welcome Friday through Sunday, but if
you can’t make it for the entire weekend, be sure
to attend Sunday to witness some exhilarating Pro racing
action and amateur finals which will provide an action
packed day for the entire family for only $15.00 per
adult and children under six are free.
To get to the track, take I-81 to Exit #63 and follow
the signs to the track. For more information, log on
