AHRMA is putting a special spotlight on Dirt Track racing and racers.
During 2022, the AHRMA Dirt Track program made huge strides and it’s time we shared the excitement our bikes and riders create by using a proven formula: The Dirt Track Vintage Cup.
This program will highlight a specific Dirt Track class during 2023 by offering discounted entry fees for racers in that class, providing special trophies, and special media coverage for the top riders.
AHRMA has been promoting a Vintage Cup as part of the Road Racing program for several years and it has successfully created excitement and competition in those classes each year and generated more interest in AHRMA.
For 2023, the Dirt Track Vintage Cup will highlight the Sportsman 750 class. The 2023 road racing Vintage Cup will highlight the Formula 750 class which means 2023 will be a great year for seeing and hearing big twins from the 70’s tearing it up on the dirt and pavement.
Along with a discounted entry fee for Sportsman 750, other incentives for Vintage Cup racers will include highlighting the bikes and riders throughout the year in the AHRMA MAG. Plus there will be a Championship article in the AHRMA MAG for the top 3 year-end finishers.
The Sportsman 750 class is for motorcycles built up until 1974 and earlier machines manufactured as 601-750cc, including like-design models.
