Mid-America Speedway Issue No. 8

In This Issue June 9th Update Mid-America on Facebook and Twitter Opening Night info   Mid-America realizes that the future of the sport rests with the youth riders and just like last year, we will pay a $100 bonus to the winning bike owner in the 85-200cc class Also, new this year is the 250+ Amateur class which is open to riders that have never held an AMA Pro Racing License. This is open to any rider that is eligible to ride a 250 or larger machine. Meaning that in order to ride a 250 you must be 12 years or older, and 14 years or older to ride a 450. Minor Waivers Please remember that a parent or legal guardian must sign a waiver for any rider under the age of 18 in order to enter the pits. If a rider is going to be accompanied by anyone other than a parent/legal guardian they must have a notarized release signed by the child's parent/legal guardian. We can also email a copy of the release form if needed. Minor releases are not required for the grandstands. Practice Nights Practice nights at Mid-America will start on Wednesday, June 13th. There will also be open practice on Saturday, June 16th which will include complimentary burgers, hot dogs, and drinks. Practices are generally held each Wednesday provided there is not a race on the following Saturday. Remember that minors must have a parent/legal guardian sign the waiver.
