PICKERINGTON, Ohio (Oct. 22, 2004) -- AMA Pro Racing has released its schedule for the 2005 AMA Motocross Championship. The championship consists of 12 rounds including a new round in Lakewood, Colo. Additionally, similar to 2004, the series begins and ends in California and provides teams and riders with an off-weekend between the end of the THQ AMA Supercross Series and the beginning of the AMA Motocross Championship.
AMA Pro Racing SX/MX Series Manager Steve Whitelock is excited about the addition of the Colorado round. “We’re looking forward to bringing AMA Motocross to racing fans in the Denver area,” said Whitelock. “We’re confident that the new event at Thunder Valley will be a nice complement to the existing schedule. Plus, it enables us to reach a region of the Unites States that has lacked an AMA Motocross race. ”

The 2005 AMA Motocross Championship schedule is as follows:

Date Location
May 21-22 Hangtown Classic, Sacramento, Calif.

May 18-29 High Point Raceway, Mt. Morris, Penn.

June 11-12 Motocross 338, Southwick, Mass.

June 18-19 Budds Creek Motocross Park, Budds Creek, Md.

July 2-3 Red Bud Track-N-Trail, Buchanan, Mich.

July 16-17 Unadilla Valley Sports Center, New Berlin, N.Y.

July 23-24 Thunder Valley Motocross Park, Lakewood, Colo.

July 30-31 Washougal Motocross Park, Washougal, Wash.

Aug. 13-14 Spring Creek Motocross Park, Millville, Minn.

Aug. 20-21 Broome-Tioga Sports Center, Binghamton, N.Y.

Sept. 3-4 Steel City Raceway, Delmont, Penn.

Sept. 10-11 Glen Helen Raceway Park, San Bernardino, Calif.

This is the closest I have ever lived to a national track, 1.5 hours. Sweet! If you saw Lakewood right now you wouldn't believe that it could host a national.

Please don't tell me it's another MXdN thing.

No, They just have some work ahead of them. The track is way to short and the parking is kinda jacked. They'll pull it off I'm sure.

If vet is for over thirty, I'm in! Do they have an open class? I don't think they'd go for the 450 in the 125 class!

Posted by: super rat---------------------

Yeah the age group classes, 30+ 40+ 50+, are all open classes any size bikes.450? I thought you were on a big bore 125.... Oh well, I guess you're just another old, fat, lazy guy on a big thumper, LOL! I'm going to ride Lakewood tomorrow, I'll snap some pics.

We'll be at Red Bud for sure, possibly Steel City, we are hoping to go to Lakewood. We have a friend in Denver. We're trying to turn him into a moto junkie

anybody have the supercross tv air times?

Posted by: rickyd---------------------

They sure bounce around, west, back east, out west then back east etc.. Makes it hard on the privateers..

Just to update Lakewood. Rode there on Friday. It seems they have been working overtime, added alot of new dirt and have been fixing up the pits. Added 2 new jumps. Had all the tracotrs and dozers out there in full force. Definetly getting ready for the national. I think by july the track will be awesome. they have been moving alot of dirt around in the pits and built 2 new tunnels to get people in and out of the infiled better. Still needs a bit more work and the length of lap needs to be lengthened.

Yeah it's still way to short but the boys have been working on it. I rode sat and sun down there, it was fun. I'm still not doing the new table, next time! LOL!

MX in Lakewood is great news, the only downside is that I won't be able to ride that track without killing myself now.
