DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(July 30, 2024) –
Progressive American
Flat Track, sanctioned
by AMA Pro Racing
and in collaboration with
Øuterkind, AFT Events
and the City of Sturgis,
has unveiled the
track map
for the highly anticipated
Sturgis TT,
which will take place in the
streets of downtown Sturgis,
South Dakota, on Sunday,
August 11.
Measuring at just over a quarter
of a mile, the combined dirt and
asphalt course evokes the
origins of the Grand
National Championship
while following the more recent
precedent set by the DAYTONA TT
and Atlanta Super TT, which
incorporated paved sections of
the tri-ovals at Daytona
International Speedway and
Atlanta Motor Speedway alongside
the more traditional dirt
aspects.
The Sturgis TT is also unique
unto itself, featuring a layout,
backdrop, and vibe that simply
could not be replicated anywhere
else in the world. Set in the
heart of downtown Sturgis during
the 84th Annual City of
Sturgis Motorcycle Rally,
the track starts and ends on
Main Street right in front of
the Harley-Davidson Rally Point,
features lefthand turns onto 3rd
and then Sherman, before hitting
the dirt section that includes
left- and right-handers plus a
jump, before powering onto the
legendary Harley-Davidson Way
with its decisive final corner
back onto Main Street.
This layout lives up to the
event’s stated intent to honor
the rich heritage and tradition
of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally
and Progressive American Flat
Track while producing a
modern-day spectacle that points
to the future of both. That
tantalizing prospect has
garnered significant advance
interest in the event, including
a prime television slot on
FOX on Saturday, August
17 at 2:00 p.m. ET
(11:00 a.m. PT), the series’
first to be aired on a major
broadcast network.
