The race action will start with first moto’s on the River Track Saturday morning April 16, then moving to the Royal Purple Extreme Track by mid afternoon for all the second moto’s. Sunday morning April 17th, will be the conclusion of the program with the start of all the 3rd moto’s on the Scion GP Track. As a bonus, while the races are taking place on one of the tracks in the park, a rider can practice on one of the other tracks in the park! The pro’s will have a $5,000 purse up for grabs, while the amateurs will be competing for $3,000 worth of gift cards in select classes and special awards up to 5th place!
Each of the 3 featured tracks have there own starting line and all offer a little different personality. The River Track is a favorite of many and offers a good sand mix with some epic bowl turns and a fun rolling whoop section along with its signature gap double. The Royal Purple Extreme Track was the first track built at 3 Palms, and has a mix of step up’s/step down’s and develops some great inside ruts and ends at its signature table top finish line. Finally the Scion GP Track is a favorite of vet riders because of its fast flowing GP style design and while all the dirt is prepped to perfection on all the tracks at 3 Palms, the Scion GP Track dirt is know as “brownies” after a fresh prep.
“I have always wanted to do something that no other track can offer, and I don’t think a rider can get this much racing done on these many tracks in two days anywhere else” says 3 Palms owner and operator Emil Shebelbon. Race announcer and Parts Unlimited rep Larry Hughes added, “I am really glad to be part of this unique event where riders can race on a track, then after their moto go jump on one of the other tracks for practice. There won’t be a lot of waiting around for your next moto at the Spring Break Classic!”
