Not really. Lamay, Bisceglia, Cunningham, Oklahoma Mulisha are usually good bets. There's usually a pretty good preview of fresh faces there, too. Wilson, Anderson, Bloss, Bogle, JMart, Zach, Regal raced it before they made the show.

2 weekends of a great way for a Pro to make some extra money.

Exactly right !!!

I will never understand privateers that drive 10 thousand miles to chase a few bucks on the national level. But will pass up 2 wknds in Texas and could make well over 5k.

I remember local Pro's hitting races every weekend to make cash. I think that went away as the "Train all year for 4 races" amateurs turned pro. Kinda sad if you ask me. That is why I let my son race every weekend we can.

Trey's always had an overflowing pro gate. They had 1100 entries for the weekend last year.

Woohoo!!! Pumped up!

Took vacation from work and I will be there racing and watching the pros all weekend!

This weekend will be our biggest race of the year, the 26th Annual Texas Pro-Am Challenge! Sept. 29-Oct. 1 . This will be a great opportunity to come and race a national outdoor motocross event that some of the fastest professional motocross racers from across the country have raced! Now in its 26th year, this event has paid out over $625,000 to pro riders!! With a guaranteed $25,000 pro purse, you can bet there will be some great racing as they battle it out for the cash this weekend!! . In addition to the pros racing, we will have plenty of amateur day racing, night racing, and then fireworks on Saturday night! There will be bounce houses and inflatable slides for the kids, great concessions, and more! This will definitely be a fun weekend for all ages!! . .

What classes are you running? I'll be in the 50+ and 55+ during the days, not sure if I'll race Saturday night!

My son, Doc, will be in the Future Pro class.

The best track in the south!

Tyler's mom will be back to chew you out if you keep spouting that nonsense.

Can't wait for this weekend, gonna do some laps on the '96 in 250A and hopefully won't be dead after 10 minutes in.

Look forward to meeting y'all!

The only way to get to ride the whole track with the pro section is to sign up for the Future Pro class. You know you could school all those kids who think their SOOOO fast.

Starting to wish I did sign up for it, the pro section looks fun . . . Double double double for me! Haha!

Track has some big changes since I was here in the spring! Can't wait to rip it!
