MotoAmerica And AFT Combine To Offer Ticket Package For Both Road Racing And Flat Track Action At Daytona
MotoAmerica, North America’s premier motorcycle road racing series, is pleased to announce that it has teamed up with American Flat Track (AFT) to offer a combo “America Super Ticket” package that will give race fans admission to both series’ opening rounds at Daytona International Speedway, March 9-11.
For just $100, fans will be able to purchase a ticket that will allow them to witness both nights of AFT Daytona Short Track action on Thursday, March 9 and Friday, March 10 and all three days of MotoAmerica action at Daytona International Speedway, March 9 through 11, including the 81st running of the Daytona 200 on Saturday, March 11.
Gates open at 3 p.m. both days at the Daytona Short Track, which is located outside NASCAR Turn 2 at the World Center of Racing, with opening ceremonies set for 7 p.m. on both nights. Along with kicking off the highly anticipated 2023 Mission SuperTwins presented by S&S Cycle and Parts Unlimited AFT Singles presented by KICKER title fights, Thursday’s action will include the Grand National Hooligan Championship while the Astros Invitational joins the show on Friday.
Meanwhile, MotoAmerica action inside Daytona International Speedway will begin at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 9 with the opening practice session for the REV’IT! Twins Cup class and will conclude at 4 p.m. with Mission Super Hooligan National Championship qualifying. On Friday, REV’IT! Twins Cup will take to the track for qualifying at 9 a.m. and racing action will begin at 1:30 p.m. with the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship race followed in quick succession by REV’IT! Twins Cup race one (2:10 p.m.) and Mission King of the Baggers race one (3:10 p.m.). On Saturday, racing action will begin at 9:35 a.m. with the second of two Mission Super Hooligan National Championship races followed at 10:30 a.m. by the second REV’IT! Twins Cup race. Next up is the Daytona 200, sponsored in part by Pirelli and Bridgestone, at 1:10 p.m. with Mission King Of The Baggers set to close out the weekend with its second race set to begin at 4 p.m.
“I think it’s safe to say that most road race fans, including myself, are also fans of American Flat Track,” said MotoAmerica COO Chuck Aksland. “We’ve looked for opportunities in the past to have events that can coincide with each other, but it’s proven difficult given the logistics involved. It’s fitting that we can make this happen for the first time at Daytona International Speedway. After the MotoAmerica activities inside the Speedway conclude, it will be great to be able to head outside the Speedway to watch the first two rounds of AFT’s season. It’s only appropriate that we’re making it easy for fans to watch both the AFT and MotoAmerica events with just one ticket. This year’s Daytona event is going to be something special, and we look forward to seeing our fans for three action-packed days at the Speedway.”
“We’re excited to bring flat track racing back home to Daytona International Speedway and thrilled to team up with MotoAmerica and create this opportunity for the fans,” said Gene Crouch, CEO of AMA Pro Racing. “With three days of professional motorcycle racing on both dirt and asphalt, we’re bringing back the excitement and energy that put Daytona Bike Week on the map over a century ago.”
