America’s Largest ATV Racing Series Heads to
Ironman Raceway in Montgomery County April 27 and 28
Local Racers Line Up to Compete Against Nation’s Best ATV Talent
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (April 19, 2019) – The 2019 ATV Motocross National Championship (ATVMX), an AMA National Championship, is America’s most prestigious and longest-running ATV racing series. The 10-round pro and 8-round amateur circuit continues next weekend April 27 and 28 at Ironman Raceway in Crawfordsville, Indiana.
The ATVMX Series is the world’s premier showcase for four-wheeled off-road racing talent. The physically demanding sport forces riders to navigate a variety of obstacles as fast as possible over the course of two 20-minute motos, while controlling a 400-pound machine and battling alongside 20 other competitors. With a unique mix of triple jumps, fast straightaways and uphill jump sections the world’s fastest pro ATV racers will take to Ironman Raceway on Saturday, April 27, with the same goal in mind, to take home the overall win.
Team Nine6Nine/Walsh/Maxxis’ Logan Stanfield hails from Peru, Indiana, and races in the highly competitive Pro-Am division. Stanfield took the overall win at the previous round in Texas after moto scores of 2-2. Coming into his home state race, Stanfield is aiming to earn the overall win again, but score both moto wins as well. Also coming from Peru, Indiana is Hinson Racing/Phoenix Racing/Londerville Steel’s Brogan Guyer and after the first amateur round in Texas he sits fourth and ninth in his Open Pro Sport and Pro-Am classes. Next weekend, Guyer is aiming for a better overall finishing position in front of his family and friends.
Situated a mere hour outside of Indianapolis, Ironman Raceway has hosted a Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) Series event for over twenty years, and in 2014 started hosted motocross racing. Also located on the property is the iconic Tom’s Marine Sales. With an inventory specializing in ATVs, UTVs and boats, Tom’s Marine Sales has been a popular destination in the Crawfordsville area to purchase and service vehicles. The extensive roster of products mixed with the friendly staff make this a must stop shop for all things outdoors.
Local racers expected to compete next weekend will be: Logan Stanfield (Pro-Am), Brogan Guyer (Pro-Am/Open Pro Sport), Michael Perkins (Pro-Am/Open Pro Sport), Trystan Allerellie (Production B/College), Ryan Beaven (Junior 25+/Vet 30+), Coleman Creech (450 C), Clayton Deckard (Youth All-Star/250 Mod), Dustin Deckard (Vet 30+ C), Hayle Goff (Schoolgirl), Allison Klootwyk (Girls/70 Auto), Andrew Klootwyk (70 Auto/50 CVT), Jason Klootwyk (Vet 30+ Sportsman), Braydon Orr (Schoolboy Jr./Super Mini), Tyler Rench (Production A/College), Hunter Reynolds (Schoolboy Jr./90 Open Sr./90 Shifter Sr.), Hunter Ridenour (Open B/450 B/Production B), Trevor Roa (Production B), Nicholas Royalty (450 A/College Sportsman), Colton Sanders (70 Open/70 Auto), Matthew Sanders (Senior 40+ B), Drew Scott (Open C/Production C/College Sportsman), Jeremy Smith (450 C/Production C/Vet 30+ C), Redd Sommers (90 Auto), Cody Stockhoff (450 C/Production C), Hunter Stockhoff (450 C/Production C), Keagan Thompson (90 Open Jr/90 Shifter Jr./70 Auto), Rachel Trent (WMX/Schoolgirl), Tyler Trent (Open Pro Sport/College Sportsman) and Josh Wimmer (450 A/Vet 30+ Sportsman).
