Mid-East Area Qualifier Rescheduled as Result of Flood‏


Morgantown, WV (April 13, 2011) - Due to recent
inclement weather, conditions at Fast Traxx Motoplex in Nelsonville,
Ohio have made it impossible to prepare the track for the Mid-East Area
Qualifier this weekend, April 16-17.

The Fast Traxx venue
currently sits under water. As a result, the race will be rescheduled
for the weekend of May 14-15 in order to ensure that riders receive the
most desirable track conditions in their quest for the AMA Amateur
National Motocross Championship at the Loretta Lynn Ranch.
