DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(February 23, 2026)
— Progressive American Flat
Track, sanctioned by AMA Pro
Racing, has opened ticket
sales for the West Coast
rounds of the 2026 season:
the Ventura Short
Track on
Saturday, April 25,
at Ventura Raceway
in Ventura,
California, and the
Silver Dollar Short
Track on
Saturday, May 2,
at Silver Dollar
Speedway in
Chico, California.
The back-to-back California
events will showcase the
sport’s premier divisions,
Mission AFT
SuperTwins and
KICKER AFT Singles,
along with the newly
launched AFT
ProSport 450 class
at both venues.
AFT ProSport 450 serves as a
direct development bridge
between amateur competition
and the professional ranks,
creating a clear pathway for
rising talent to advance to
Progressive American Flat
Track. As part of the Road
to AFT initiative, the class
features the top 12
finishers from the Amateur
CTR event held the day
prior, earning them the
opportunity to compete on
the sport’s biggest stage.
By placing emerging riders
in front of professional
teams and national
audiences, AFT ProSport 450
helps accelerate the next
generation of flat track
stars.
The all women class of
Build. Train. Race.
will join the series at
Ventura Short Track.
AFT AdventureTrackers
are making the classes first
trip to California at the
Silver Dollar Short Track as
part of their expanded
schedule in 2026.
Ventura Raceway’s tight,
1/5-mile dirt oval, located
just steps from the Pacific
Ocean, has quickly earned a
reputation for
close-quarters action and
capacity crowds. One week
later, teams will head north
to Chico, where Silver
Dollar Speedway’s
high-banked, 1/4-mile clay
oval provides a distinctly
different challenge and a
proven stage for bar-to-bar
racing.
In addition to a full slate
of racing, fans at both
events can expect vendor
displays, big-screen
viewing, designated
motorcycle parking and a
wide range of food and
beverage options.
