DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(April 16, 2026) –
Progressive American Flat
Track, sanctioned by AMA Pro
Racing, is set to deliver a
full weekend of racing,
entertainment, and special
moments at Ventura Raceway,
bringing the series to the
heart of motorcycle country
with a lineup of stars on
and off the track on
Saturday, April 25.
Tyler Bereman rolls in as
Grand Marshal, bringing the
all-gas-no-brakes energy of
a 14-time X Games medalist
to Ventura, both on the
track and throughout the
event.
“Growing up racing flat
track and watching my dad
mix it up with the greats of
the sport, I’m honored to
serve as Grand Marshal for
Ventura AFT,” said Bereman.
“Turning left and backing it
in is where it all started
for me, so coming back at
this point in my career
feels like home. I’m looking
forward to seeing you all
there and enjoying some
battles on the beach.”
The excitement continues
with Trashed Kids FMX, as
Patrick Evans, Dustin Nowak,
and Bereman deliver a
freestyle motocross show
packed with big air, style,
and crowd-pleasing
intensity.
Fans looking to elevate
their race day can
experience the 805 Pit
Party, a premium add-on
featuring a dedicated
hospitality area, 805
beverage options, snacks
served throughout the event,
and paddock access for a
closer look at the teams and
riders, all just steps from
the on-track action.
Adding extra incentive on
track, the Jess Garcia
Memorial Challenge gives
KICKER AFT Singles riders
the opportunity to compete
in tribute to the California
native and former AFT
Singles competitor, with
$1,414 on the line.
The Ventura Short Track will
also serve as “Chris Raschke
Day,” with tributes
throughout the evening
honoring his life and
lasting impact on the sport.
And when the gate drops,
it’s pure Ventura, tight,
fast, and wide open, a
showcase of everything that
makes Progressive American
Flat Track one of the most
electrifying forms of
motorcycle racing in the
world.
