  • Perris Raceway MX Sports Area Qualifier moved to March 1-2

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (Dec. 27, 2007) – MX Sports, producer of the Air Nautiques/AMA Amateur National Motocross Championships at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tenn., announced today a change in the 2008 Loretta Lynn’s Area Qualifier Schedule.

The Area Qualifier at Perris Raceway MX in California has been moved from April 12 and 13 to March 1 and 2. This move was made to better accommodate the riders on the West Coast, as the previous dates were in conflict with the World Mini Grand Prix in Las Vegas.

Track owner, Sebastian Tortelli, said "Perris Raceway is excited to host this very prestigious event. The AMA Air Nautiques Amateur Motocross Championships at Loretta Lynn's is without question the most important amateur event of the year.  We are pleased the schedule change will better accommodate the riders in our region."

The 2008 qualifying season will commence with the (52) Area Qualifiers, beginning February 22 and concluding June 18. Step two of the qualifying process will be the (12) Regional Championships which will run from May 24  through June 22. The 27th Annual Air Nautiques AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship will be held July 27 through August 3.

About the Air Nautiques/AMA Amateur National Motocross Championships:

The MX Sports produced event is the world’s largest amateur motocross race. Hosted annually since 1982 at the home of country music star Loretta Lynn in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee, the event is the premier amateur motocross race in the world. In 2007, over 25,000 entries attempted to qualify in 33 classes for the 1386 available gates at the national. In 2008 the National event, christened the world’s greatest motocross vacation, will be held July 27th – August 3rd. As proof of the significance of winning an AMA Amateur National Championship Title, most of today’s top motocross and supercross stars, including Ricky Carmichael, James Stewart, and Ryan Villopoto, won championships at Loretta Lynn’s before turning pro. Sponsors include Air Nautiques, Amsoil, Cobra, Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Suzuki, Yamaha, Gatorade, Parts Unlimited, Red Bull, Thor, Toyota, AGV, Alpinestars, Boyesen, Cti, DC Shoes, DeCal Works, FMF, Kicker, Moto Tees, Ogio, Renthal, Scott, Twin Air, Wiseco, and Racer X Illustrated.  For more information visit www.mxsports.com.
