- Site Lap: The Wind of ChangeDecember 7, 2016The amazing transformation from off-season to preseason is about to take place. The final announcements for many teams are, or have been, made and the focus now turns from securing deals to training for the quickly approaching 2017 FLY Racing ATV Supercross on Tuesday, March 14, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida.
- Site Lap: Happy Holidays!November 30, 2016Thanksgiving has come and gone, and for me it was another busy week. As many of you know I have spent the better part of the past two Thanksgiving Holiday decades at the Thor Winter Olympics at Gatorback Cycle Park in Florida.
- Site Lap: Thanksgiving HolidayNovember 16, 2016The Thanksgiving Holiday is quickly approaching. It is actually a little over a week away and as quiet as things are it looks like we may have a healthy feast of information to chew on the next couple of weeks.
- Site Lap: Start Up The Holiday CheerNovember 9, 2016The United States of America and world woke this morning to a historic announcement when Donald Trump was declared the 45th president of our great country. I know it sounds cliché, but when I began to think of this weeks contribution I couldn’t help to think of how great the changes we have experienced in our ATV Racin’ Nation have been and maybe the types of changes we are seeing may be good for our country too.
- Site Lap: Another Off-Season Week Rolls ByNovember 3, 2016Another week rolls by in the ATV Racin’ Nation and all seems quiet. There are some rumbles here and there and we wait with baited breathe for the next big break in news for the upcoming 2017 ProX ATV Motocross National Championship season. This is has to be the toughest part of the season for race fans as news doesn't seem to come nearly as fast as we want. Fear not though the floodgates will eventually open and the news will be abunda
- Site Lap: Let The Preparations BeginOctober 26, 2016The 2017 ProX ATV Motocross National Championship presented by CST Tires, an AMA National Champion is still a few months away, but already many of the contingents are in preparation mode.
- Site Lap: Off-Season BluesOctober 20, 2016The first weeks of the long and grueling off-season are now behind us, and the thoughts of the first week of March seem so far away. The fact remains as long as it is, it will be here before we realize it.
- Site Lap: Champions CrownedOctober 12, 2016The “Night of Champions” banquet and celebration of the 2016 ProX ATV Motocross National Championship this past weekend brought all the stars of the national championship out for another grand affair. The setting and backdrop of the Kalahari Bay Resort was once again perfect as there was something for the entire family. The indoor waterpark, arcade, spa, restaurants and shops offered more than enough to do for everyone. And the great thing about if you couldn’t attend the ceremonies you could watch live on RacerTV.com. It is also archived so you can go back and check it out for yourself.
- Site Lap: Night of ChampionsOctober 5, 2016The truth has to be told and now is the time to say it. The only thing I can think about is Kalahari Resort and the upcoming “night of champions” awards presentation. Last year’s banquet there was possibly one of the coolest in some time and this year may be better considering we know what to look forward to. The great thing about this place is there is something for nearly everyone.
- Site Lap: The Season of HypeSeptember 29, 2016The 2016 ProX ATV Motocross National Championship presented by CST Tires, an AMA National championship was hyped to be one of the best championship seasons in recent history. There was a hype that the “new era” of racing was upon us, and how the year may produce more stars and present new challenges. In the end it is likely safe to say that the season lived up to all the hype it was given. A simple look through the standings prove the point with not only the tight battles but new names that are starting to emerge as top national athletes. One may even say this year was the dawn of that “new era” and the sun is only starting to rise.
- Site Lap: Celebration Time!September 21, 2016The 2016 racing season is officially over for the ATV Racin’ Nation as this weekend wrapped up one of the richest ATV races in history with the 4th Annual Caleb Moore Memorial ATV Pro Challenge. Ken Hill spent some time there and has a nice wrap up in his contribution this week. The last order of business for us now is the year-end awards banquet in just a few weeks.
- Site Lap: Coming To A CloseSeptember 15, 2016It all began six months ago and now it has finally come to a close. The 2016 ProX AMA Pro ATV Motocross National Championship wrapped up this past weekend at The Edge of Summer MX at Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan. It was a long way from Daytona International Speedway and we all had a long road to get there. Congratulations to Joel Hetrick on another impressive win and congratulations to Chad Wienen for his fifth consecutive AMA Pro ATV Motocross National Championship.
