RACE SEASON IS FINALLY HERE!!!

On *Saturday* April 4th we will be kicking off our 1st round of racing for the 2026 race season at “Reno Raceway” located just outside of Marietta, OH! Since this is Easter weekend we chose to have this race on Saturday so our crew & racers could spend Sunday with their families.

Reno Raceway is full of racing history as many local XC & MX races have been held on this property over the past several decades (48 years to be exact!). This track has a great mixture of technical and open faster paced trails, mx section as well as a rocky optional hill climb & the famous “Duvall Hill” which is a crowd favorite! Recently Henry the landowner has purchased a neighboring plot of land which we plan to put a brand new single track section in for the youth & adult racers to enjoy! We have also done quite a bit of trail maintenance prior to this event and we have come up with a new layout for racers of all skill levels to enjoy for this season opener event!

We have made several changes over the winter to our classes, so make sure you check out this link for the full list of classes available for this season!

We are also making some changes to our Motomom & Pitbike racing format, which they will now be racing at every event this year and will be scored with separate overalls! Checkout the raceday schedule below for the changes!

Also lots of new Contingency Programs available for this season, make sure you check out the Contingency section of our website for details!

We want to welcome Big Hometown Motorsports back as our 2026 Season Title Sponsor!

 

Also in case you haven’t seen it yet, our online number reservation system is open until Wed April 1st at Midnight. So if you haven’t already reserved your number get it done ASAP! After the reservation system is closed, the numbers will be issued on a “first come, first serve basis” on each race day. Just as a reminder this does not “pre-register” you for a event, you still have to come to the yellow registration trailer with your helmet, signup forms and payment. Even if you don’t care what number you are assigned, please still go thru the process as this will greatly help speed up the signup process on our opening race day! Click here for directions on how to reserve yours!

The parking area at this facility has easy off the road access and there is plenty of room to bring in your toy haulers or campers in to make it a full weekend family adventure with us (reminder gates close at 11pm Fri eve so please plan accordingly) As always there is no extra charge for primitive camping and you all are more than welcome to stay Saturday evening also. See the bottom of this page for track address & special directions if you have a 5th wheel or low clearance RV or Enclosed Trailer.

Brutus And Company will be onsite serving up their delicious BBQ for all our racers & fans!

Sycamore Sweets will be onsite with all their delicious coffees and treats!

Our transponders are the stick on type which go on the back side of your helmet. The transponders are a one time cost of $10.00, sorry we cant rent them out per race. It will be a one time purchase and as long as you don’t damage it, lose it or switch helmets. If you already have one of these stick on style transponders from any other race series, you are good to go as long as it passes the reader test at registration.

The wait is finally over as our online number reservation system is now activated and will be open until Wednesday April 1st at midnight! After that numbers will be issued on a “first come, first serve basis” on each race day. Just as a reminder this does not “pre-register” you for a event, you still have to come to the yellow registration trailer with your helmet, signup forms and payment.

 When choosing your class for the 2026 race season please make sure you honestly choose the class according to your skill level, sandbagging in any class will not be tolerated at all. Everyone should be racing the same skill level based class no matter what series it is that you attend or no matter if the event is AMA sanctioned or not and no matter how many racers may attend a series.

When completing your request make sure you follow the instructions and complete  **ALL** information fields, including emergency contact info.  If you submit a request with partial info and you provided us with a valid email, you will receive an email back stating that you must resubmit your request with full info which could cause you to lose your number if another racer is requesting the same number. Also when reserving your numbers, **you must give us 3 different choices** on the numbers that you would like, numbers can only be 3 digit or less, no letters can be added. Please don’t send a request with just one # or the same # for all 3 choices.

If you are one of these racers it is not mandatory to run these numbers, if you would like to run another number just let us know on your reservation form. If you are moving up a division, example: from peewee bike to youth bike or youth bike to adult bike, you cannot carry your overall number with you.
