The 2017 Red Bull Straight Rhythm once again features head-to-head racing on an “unwound” track, where there are no turns, just a 1/2-mile-long straight rhythm section. Now in its fourth year, the event will continue the new format where practice, qualifying and racing will all take place on the same day, with the finals taking place at night under the lights. With many of the world’s top Supercross and motocross riders expected to return to the competition and with some new changes to be announced shortly, the event looks to be better than ever. Red Bull KTM’s Marvin Musquin won the 2016 Red Bull Straight Rhythm.

With over 10,000 grandstand seats, plus an infield and paddock, spectators will be treated to a one-of-a-kind experience while watching an all-out, head-to-head sprint to the finish line.
