The Florida Motocross Series and the FL/GA Championship Series have joined forces once again for 2017. The first race of the year for the combined series was held this past weekend at Orlando Mx Park. The Dyess family went all out to make the opening round a great one, offering a $1000 Open A & B class, and also working to obtain sponsors to give riders in every class the chance to race for more than just the usual.
Many classes were sponsored, offering a $300 payout! Sponsors included Stellar Mx, Spaceport Cycles, Champions Honda/Kawasaki, Central Florida Powersports, 123 Powersports, DSI, Trackside Treats, Cycle Sports Center, and more. Fly bucks, gas card giveaways, and even sets of tires! With over 400 entries, this was THE RACE TO BE AT in Florida!
Before the start of racing, a memorial lap was organized to honor Cody Gragg, his father, and Walon Maloy. The motocross community is a family itself, and certainly mourns the loss of its own. Many, many, many bikes took to the track for the memorial lap, to pay their respect to those recently lost.
The racing began for the day on the peewee track. The Orlando Mx folks had done a great job getting an awesome peewee track ready for the race. Florida MOTO News heard many people complimenting the little track. The 50cc BEG and 50cc OIL classes ran their races on the peewee track. All other 50cc classes, however, had their motos on the main track. When racing moved to the main track, the action was non-stop. Huge gates of fast competition made for some intense moto battles. On the track and in the pits, everyone seemed to be having a really great time. Smiling faces could be seen everywhere, as many riders congratulated each other, and made plans to race again at the next round. The Florida Motocross Series and FL/GA Championship Series combined racing heads next to Bostwick Creek Mx Park on April 23rd. It appears as though the combined series racing is going to make the 2017 year of motocross racing in Florida one for the record books!
