The
MXPTV Midwest Tour, hosted by Tom Bradley and Brittany Newman, will
begin under the lights on May 28th at Lincoln Trail Motorsports in
Casey, IL.  The night racing will be followed by traditional motocross
on the 29th and a natural terrain course, with District 17 bonus
points, on the 30th.  Coverage then moves down to the southeastern
portion of the midwest for the weekend of July 9th and 10th at
Horseshoe Bend MX in Owenton, KY.  Horseshoe Bend will be running a
three race moto format to prepare the amateur riders for the following
months Loretta Lynn’s event. 

From the southeast, the show will move
north to Sunset Ridge MX in Walnut, IL for coverage of the Pro/Am
racing on September 10th and 11th.  A large Pro purse and a top caliber
track will make for some of the years fastest, most exciting racing at
this event.  And as summer comes to a close the Midwest Tour finishes
off with back to back weekends of coverage.  On October 23rd the race
show will be at Archview MX Park in Washington Park, IL for Archview’s
“National Throwdown”.  Last year’s Throwdown was stacked with talented
riders and this year’s race will have more of the same. 

The final race
show will be at MXP Racing in Columbia, MO on October 30th.  This will
be a match up between Missouri State and District 18 riders.  Bonus
points for both Districts’ riders at the event will ensure that every
racer is going all out.
