Special Information:

  1. Pre-Registration is now available! Click HERE to pre-register for the event.
  2. Sunset Ridge MX to honor the US military and veterans at Round 6 of the AMA Pro Racing ATVMX National Championship Series. All active and retired military will be admitted to Saturday’s event free of charge.

    May 27th and 28th Sunset Ridge MX will be honoring our US military and veterans. In previous years the Sunset round has been our “pink” Breast Cancer Awareness round, which we will always support. However, this year we found it fitting being over Memorial Day Weekend to honor those who have and continue to fight for our freedom.

  3. The Quad Cities formed a local chapter of the Honor Flight Network, called Honor Flight of the Quad Cities (HFQC) in 2008. The purpose of HFQC is to fly America’s veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials dedicated to honoring their sacrifices. April 4, 2023 marked the 56th flight to Washington DC.

  4. We invite ALL to join us in a special track walk to kick off the celebrations on Friday at approximately 5pm immediately following the practice sessions. Donations will be accepted for Honor Flight of the Quad Cities throughout the weekend.

Racers are encouraged to show your support and respect to any or all of the service branches during this special weekend with military themed graphics and/or supporting the Red, White & Blue! Anyone who would like to honor someone special can submit a jpeg photo with a brief description to be displayed on our wall of honor.

Sunset Ridge MX is truly a wide-open track. With man-made jumps and sweeping turns, it offers lots of room to move around. Wide bowl turns can be found here, which lend themselves to high speeds, while the soil is sandy and can rob riders of dearly needed horsepower. This is more of a technical track that favors very skilled riders. You’ll get a real supercross feel when you first see the jumps and layout.

This northeastern Illinois facility is a real racers’ favorite, and it offers excellent views of the action for the fans. This is Chad Wienen’s home track; his fan base will be sure to turn out in great numbers and make plenty of noise for their local hero. Parking at Sunset Ridge is set up in an adjoining field with ample room. Hotels and amenities can be found in nearby Princeton and Rock Falls, each of which is approximately twenty minutes from the track by car.
