A note from
Merrill Vanderslice,
Director of Professional Competition, AMA Pro Racing
For over 75 years, AMA racers, officials and staff have worked
to build a legacy of hard-fought competition and spectator excitement.
That legacy has brought forth some of the world's top motorcycle
racers, and some of the most memorable moments in motorcycling
history. We're glad you're here today, to witness an elite field
of racers in pursuit of the internationally renowned AMA National
Championship title.
Whether it's the extreme thrills of the AMA EA Sports Supercross
and AMA Chevy Trucks U.S. Motocross Championships, the All-American
heritage of the AMA Progressive Insurance U.S. Flat Track Championships,
or the high-tech intensity of the AMA Chevy Trucks U.S. Superbike
Championship, AMA Pro Racing series have one thing in common:
they deliver the best motorcycle racing the nation, and the world,
has to offer.
As the U.S. affiliate of the Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme
(FIM), AMA Pro Racing has the honor of hosting the U.S. round
of the FIM World Superbike Championship. Our FIM membership also
allows riders from other nations to compete in AMA races, and
provides an avenue for U.S. riders to compete in FIM World Supercross/Motocross,
World Superbike, World Grand Prix and World Speedway races. Our
partnership with the FIM ensures that AMA Pro Racing events are
truly world-class.
After today's race, we hope you'll follow your favorite AMA Pro
Racing series from home, on TV or via the internet. You can catch
all the action, including broadcast times, immediate race results,
rider stories and news at www.amaproracing.com.
Thanks for coming to this AMA Pro Racing event. We hope you find
it as enjoyable as have millions of others. If you have suggestions
or comments, please let us know by e-mail at proinfo@amaproracing.com.

Sincerely,
Merrill Vanderslice
