DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(February 27, 2023) –
Progressive American
Flat Track, the world's
premier dirt track motorcycle
racing series, is pleased to
announce that it has teamed up
with MotoAmerica,
North America’s premier
motorcycle road racing series,
to offer the “America
Super Ticket,” a combo
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 Progressive AFT on the
DAYTONA Short Track
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 3:00 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 7:00 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.”
