Sign up for racing normally begins several hours before the racing event. Following sign up, each group of racers will be allowed practice sessions on the race track. Once practice is completed the race program will begin. Please refer to the individual tracks' information on the Tracks page for more information on specific race date starting times and other track specifics.

Many of our District 12 tracks also offer weekly open practice sessions for riders throughout the year. Please visit each tracks' individual website for more information on open practice.

Our group of AMA District 12 race promoters host over 70 motocross and harescramble racing events throughout each yearly season, which runs approximately from March through the middle of November.

At each racing event, the top finishing racers receive awards (trophies and/or plaques, money for Pro class) at the event. All PeeWee racers receive awards regardless of their finishing position as support and

encouragement for their accomplishments.

District 12 racers are also awarded District points, which are accumulated for year-end or series awards. These awards are presented to racers at our annual District 12 Rider Awards Banquet and dinner, normally held in the off season during February.

AMA District 12 was formed in 1999 to provide Ohio motocross racers and their families with quality tracks, superior AMA sanctioned** events, awards, and to

promote a friendly and family atmosphere at all of our events. Each District 12 event is staffed with knowledgable and friendly personnel.

Through our efforts to bring quality racing back to Northern Ohio, District 12 is gaining the reputation of being the leading motocross racing organization in the Mid West.

**AMA is the American Motorcyclist Association, which is the only national organization that works to protect and benefit the rights of motorcyclists of all disciplines. Everyone that rides a motorcycle, whether it be on or off road, should belong to the AMA.
