West Coast Moto Jam Set 

for May at Infineon Raceway

 

SONOMA, Calif. (Feb. 10, 2010) - Infineon Raceway's traditional spring
motorcycle weekend will have a new look and feel in 2010, as well as a
new name.

 

The West Coast Moto Jam will take place May 14-16 and boasts a little
bit of everything on two wheels, highlighted by the best motorcycle road
racers in the country from AMA Pro Road Racing.

 

But the action won't be limited to the world-famous road course. The
weekend will also feature Supermoto, Flat Track and Motocross. Plus, the
raceway will host the first-ever zero-carbon motorcycle race in the
United States with the TTXGP U.S. Championships.  It's simply one of the
most comprehensive motorcycle weekends on the West Coast.

 

"Northern California is home to enthusiasts of every kind of motorcycle
racing and our vision for this event is to offer a unique menu of
activity that will satisfy every one of their passions," said Steve
Page, president and general manager of Infineon Raceway.

 

AMA Pro Road Racing

The road course will be the site for AMA Pro Road Racing with action in
three divisions: American SuperBike, Daytona SportBike and Supersport.
Each division will run main events on both Saturday and Sunday of race
weekend, making for a jam-packed program on the road course.

 

TTXGP U.S.Championships

Infineon Raceway will host the first-ever zero-carbon motorcycle race in
the United States with the TTXGP U.S. Championships. Azhar Hussain,
founder of TTXGP (Time Trial eXtreme Grand Prix), hopes to build on the
success of a similar event hosted at the Isle of Man in Europe last
June.  

 

Supermoto USA

The Infineon Raceway Karting Center will also come alive with Supermoto
USA, which will compete for the fifth consecutive year. Competitors will
navigate the three-quarter mile, 16-turn course, which is a combination
of dirt and asphalt. It's one of the most challenging circuits on the
series' schedule.

 

Motocross

Motocross, which was a highly-popular addition to the race weekend in
2008, returns after a one-year hiatus. Racing will be featured in
vintage, amateur and endurance divisions. Legendary rider Brad Lackey,
who won the 1982 World Motocross Championship, will team with McAllister
Motorsports to host the event. More than 300 riders are expected for
this three-day event.

 

Flat Track

Finally, Flat Track will take place on a quarter-mile oval created
behind the Turn 9 Terrace with Eddie Mulder's West Coast Dirt Track
Series. This marks the first Flat Track event at Infineon Raceway in
more than 20 years. Racing will span all weekend.

 

May 12-13

           You won't have to wait until Friday to take part in the fun.
Festivities begin on Wednesday, May 12, with a 3J's Motorcycle Track Day
(www.3jsmotorcycledays.com), with all proceeds benefitting Speedway
Children's Charities, the charitable arm of Infineon Raceway. That
night, get ready for motorcycle drag racing on the quarter-mile strip.
