Hangtown Celebrates 40 Years of Motocross Action

May 16, 2008

NPG/AMA News Release

The most senior circuit of the AMA Toyota Motocross Championship presented by FMF celebrates 40 years of national event action with the Honda Hangtown Motocross Classic presented by Jackson Rancheria Hotel and Casino at Hangtown MX Park in the Prairie City State Vehicle Recreation Area, May 31-June 1.

A host to professional motocross since 1968 and a part of the AMA Motocross Championship since 1974, Hangtown will commemorate its anniversary with unique changes to the historic circuit. In addition to its new date, a redesigned track layout will present a fresh challenge for the riders. Combine that with a reverse direction run around the hallowed grounds for a truly innovative experience for riders and fans alike.

Furthermore, track officials have introduced an expanded seating and hospitality section. Aimed at providing an easier way for riders' families to enjoy the weekend festivities, the new facilities will help Hangtown grow in popularity. The series' highest attended venue, the track hopes to build upon the crowd energetic and dedicated motocross faithful it hosted in 2007. Eager fans can purchase tickets in advance or enter for a chance to win tickets thanks to the launch of the new Hangtown website at www.hangtownmx.com.

Honda returns as the event's title sponsor for the third consecutive year and will showcase a full line of its off-road motorcycles at the race. Jackson Rancheria Hotel & Casino, Jackson, California's first-class hotel and casino, joins the national as a presenting sponsor for the first time.

In partnership with The Dirt Diggers North Motorcycle Club, Hangtown will invite members of several local city councils, surrounding mayors, senators, and members of congress to be a part of an ongoing dignitary effort, showcasing the need for off-highway vehicle parks.
