The 2016 Rocky Mountain ATV/MC AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship is officially on the calendar for next August–as if there was any doubt!
MX Sports, the promoter of the 2016 Rocky Mountain ATV/MC AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship, presented by AMSOIL, has confirmed the dates for the event.
The 42nd running of America’s most prestigious amateur motocross event is scheduled to take place from August 1 through August 6 at the historic Loretta Lynn Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee. It marks the 35th time that the event has been held at the Loretta Lynn Ranch.
In order to compete in the National, racers must first participate in the national qualifying program. Area Qualifiers serve as the first step in qualifying for the world’s most prestigious amateur motocross race. There are over 50 Area Qualifiers in over eight geographical locations across the United States, making it the largest amateur motocross program in the world. The Regional Championships then serve as the next step to seed riders into the National program at Loretta Lynn Ranch. Only riders who finish in a qualifying position at a Regional Championship are eligible for one of the 1,482 gates spots at the National in August. The Area and Regional Qualifier dates are set to be released next month.
