AMA Pro ATV License Request

Monday, October 29, 2007 | 12:00 AM

AMA PRO RACING is currently accepting resumes for 2008 AMA Pro ATV licenses. Unless otherwise notified, all current license holders will be sent an application to reapply. The top three finishing riders in the 2007 points of the Pro-Am division at  the ITP/Moose Racing ATVA National MX Series will be extended applications as well.

 

A three person panel will be assembled to review resumes and select qualified applicants to assure the level of professionalism needed to obtain an AMA Pro ATV RACING license. This panel will also assist in the development of a pyramid of progression type system, which brings riders up through the Pro-Am ranks in the GNC series, as well as the possibility of other organized ATVA race series in the future.

 

All AMA Pro Racing licenses include a rider medical insurance policy.

 

Applicants must be a minimum 16 years of age.
