April 7, 2010 - Glen Helen, CA - The best
motocross racers in the world will be coming to Southern California's
Glen Helen Raceway to contest the sixth round of the MX1 World
Championship on May 29-30th. This event
also marks the return of the historic U.S. Grand Prix (USGP) concept of
pitting America's best against the world!


Tickets go on sale Friday, April 9th, for the "Race of the Century" as
the event is being billed. Co-promoted by Bud Feldkamp, president of
Glen Helen Raceway, and Giuseppe Luongo, president of Youthstream, the
USGP at Glen Helen
recreates a slice of history.


Last contested at Glen Helen back in 1992, the return of the USGP to
Southern California is a fitting tribute to the 30th anniversary of an
American first winning the USGP at the old Carlsbad track when a
hometown hero Marty Moates piloted
his privateer LOP Yamaha to victory. Feldkamp is one of those who
remembers what a monumental achievement it was and hopes to recreate
that magic. "It has been a life-long dream of mine and the staff to
have this extraordinary World
Championship event at Glen Helen. This will give motocross fans across
the U.S. an opportunity to see our top American riders compete against
the MX champions from around the world on U.S. soil."


On April 9th tickets become available at the Glen Helen website
www.glenhelen.com as well as at participating local Yamaha dealers. Reserved camping will also go on sale April 9, 2010 at $50 per spot.

Glen Helen: Racing At Its Best Since 1985 - Located
North of
San Bernardino in the area of Devore, Glen Helen Raceway is set on 256
acres against a mountain side making for great course. Glen Helen
Raceway started back in 1985, hosting several Sand Drags, Off-Road
events and Motocross races. In 1990
Glen Helen Raceway hosted its first major event, the United States
Grand Prix Motocross and again in 1991 and 1992. After hosting the
USGP, the Glen Helen Raceway venue became an internationally known
track. In 1995 and 1996 two more major
events came to Glen Helen Raceway, the Off-Road Winter Series and the
AMA 125/250 MX Nationals. Addition of these events to Glen Helen
Raceway's roster helped the facility become of one of the most seen and
raced on tracks in the world.
Today Glen Helen Raceway has added more race tracks and has put
thousands of dollars into its facility, culminating in it becoming
Youthstream's choice to bring back the historic USGP race. See more at
