Due to double booking, the even schedule for Oct 2/3 has been cancelled.
And due to lack of interest, it is unlikely that we can make another venue work
in time and within our budget. It looks like out 2010 season has an
abbreviated end.
We are already hard at work looking at options for 2011. We will be back
with a vengance.
9/1/2010, Update
Yes, the update has been a long time coming. The 2010 season has been a
challenge for all, but we are dedicated to ending it with a bang. There
are 2 events left: Sept 11/12 and Oct 2/3. Both of these events are to be held
on the constantly improving Renegade Raceways Facility.
We have decided to re-implment the points drop for this year, so your worst
score of each class will be excluded. The results dont properly factor
this in, so we will be diligently working on getting the dynamic results pages
back up and functional
The event that we were to have run this weekend at Renegade Raceways has been
cancelled. We just were not able to get the facility 100% ready in time to
run this event.
In better news, a quick update on EK days. We are adding some Paved Flat
Track racing to the streets of Butte.

for the current standings and results by event.
6/1/2010, Round 4 Details. Supermoto USA NW at the
Golden Spikepike
Round 4 of Supermoto USA NW brings our series to the Golden Spike event
being held at the old lumberyard in Packwood, Washington. If you have never been there, this is a HUGE facility with massive parking lots, and indoor camping!
We are working
in concert with the Stump Jumpers to put on this event.
You may have seen the video from last year
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r71D7Y4CxL0 , as an idea how long a lap *could*
be (but we most certainly won't be going through the building this year).
Last year, this was one of the funnest events on the calendar. It was so fun, we
decided to add it to our list of points paying events for 2010.
This event is to be held ½ MILE WEST OF PACKWOOD ON HWY 12 .
For more information: call JR Tonsgard 425-238-8857 evenings or Jerry Allen

4/5/2010, 2010 Season information
Alright it's 2010, it's April, and you're thinking where's the
info on the upcoming Supermoto USA season? Where's the license
application, and is anyone going to ever update that rule-book?
Well, um, yeah, we got all of that covered. After long hours of
deliberation about what font to use for the 2010 license application,
deciding what should go in the footer of the rule-book, which shade
of red looks best on the logo, and a bunch of other semi important
things we finally have them ready.
The 2010 license is HERE,
or you can click on the 2010 license
icon on the right. We freshened up the rule-book for this season and
you can find it HERE,
and also by using the menu at the top of
this page. The official schedule is also off the menu at the top.
A couple of things about the upcoming 2010 season. We are pretty
excited about the new tracks this season that we have to go along
with the Evergreen and PGP tracks. The first race of the season
is being held at Ephrata Raceway on Sunday after the Saturday
Arenacross race; consider making it a double race weekend and
get in some extra ride time and sun. Another new track is Renagade
Raceway and it's just outside Yakima. Renagade Raceway is known
for it's drag strip, but some industrious Supermoto racers figured
out a way to get some extra tarmac down so that we can get in some
good racing. Packwood is making an officaial debut as well this
season, and the WHR premier event, Evil Knievel days is again
on the schedule for 2010. We are all really looking forward to
the diversity of the tracks, getting in some laps and having a
great season. Get your license application in, get your gear ready,
and we'll all be seeing you at the first race at Ephrata Raceway
on April 18th.

12/10/2009, Awards
Ceremony details
Supermoto USA NW 2009 Awards Ceremony, Saturday Dec 12
8am
So, what are you doing this Saturday?
Have you ever been to one of those stuffy awards
ceremonies where people get all dressed up to sip on
some mystery wine and schmooze with some jaw-bone you
dont even know?
Or have you ever had to listen to some stuffed sausage
gloat as they get an award while you sit there showing
everybody your awesome golf clap skills which you've
been using to cleverly disguise just how bored out of
your skull you really are?
Well, we are putting on a ceremony, but at Supermoto USA
NW, thats not the way we roll.
This Saturday, our awards ceremony will involve actually
riding your motorcycle, rubbing some elbows, and talking
some serious trash.
Yes, we are going to give away awards so expect some
clapping, but
more importantly, you will get to ride your motorcycle
on an arenacross track exclusively with other supermoto
riders.
Your rain tires will work just fine, but if you have a
set of knobs they''ll
work just a bit better. And on a special note, we have
it that Lee is going to keep the track supermoto
friendly.
So plan on coming out to the Evergreen State Fairgrounds
this Saturday morning.
If you only want to watch, that's cool -- there's no
admission fee. If you want to ride its only $30.
For the riders, you will get 4 hours of seat time and
free admission to the arenacross event that afternoon
and evening.
Times: December 12, 8 am-noon.
Location: Evergreen State Fairgrounds, Bull Arena
(entry is on the same side as the main entrance for the
fairgrounds, but one drive way past).

9/5/2009, Pacific GP Sept
12/13
The Supermoto USA NW 2009 Series is hitting the home stretch. Our last event at Pacific GP for the 2009 season is setup
for Sept 12th and 13th.
As many of you know, the economic crisis has hit pretty much everyone very hard, including our tracks, our sponsors and
our promoters. We are asking you to help keep our sport going. We need a show of force to keep all these businesses
that help us race to stay viable, so we can continue to race next season.
We are looking at the possibility of adding one final event for October at a new (to us) facility on the dry side of washington.
Look for an announcement on monday or tuesday with details either way.
Here is the schedule for the event:
Saturday: 9/12
9-5pm: Open Practice on south course with dirt section.
We will be running the entire class list, include Open Quad and Quad Pro.
Pricing:
1. SMUSA Membership recommended, but not required unless season points wanted.

8/19/2009, Round 6
Evergreen Speedway, Monroe WA: Thursday 8/27
Just a quick update on the Monroe round:
1. We will be entering the facility from the "blue"
gate. This is the normal back dirt road route around the
speedway. Watch for the "Supermoto Pit Area" signs to
direct you from the main street.
2. The back gate will be closed at 5pm.
If you have guests/family coming in, make sure they get
in before 5pm. Otherwise, they will have to park outside
(and pay for it) and also pay for general fair admission
(instead of $10 gate fee through us).
If you have any questions, let me know.
The daily schedule remains the same otherwise:

The Supermoto USA NW Series switches things up a bit for round 6 of the 2009 season. Thursday August 27th is the opening day
of the Evergreen State Fair and we are a big part of the kick off of this event.
Spectators in the grand stands will be able to watch for free. Also, purchasing a pit pass entitles you to
free entry to the fair itself!
Couple huge crowds with a rider based track layout (we are moving the dirt sections on to some of the pavement),
a good time is guaranteed to be had by all.
Since we are never content on track layout, expect us to build a track that mixes in all the elements that
makes our sport so much fun to participate in.
Did I mention this is a THURSDAY afternoon/night race?
So let the boss know you are coming down with a case of the racing fever!
We are aware that having a Thursday race may cause a few complications for people to get to the track at a certain time,
and want to do every thing we can to get you out to this event. If you need us to make special
accommodations (like maybe you wont be able to arrive
until after practice) please let myself or Lee know so we can make sure you get taken care of.

April 17th and we only have a few solid dates booked. The
hold up is wanting to schedule events at

going to be an excellent facility that should completely paved
in the next couple of weeks. As soon as pavement is down,
there will be a schedule done.
For those of you who have sent in membership forms, we have
them but we wanted to confirm the schedule before processing
them.
Other groups that we as riders should be supporting (and we
as an organization are scheduling around):

a Can/AM mini series with them as soon as we get our schedule
done.

practices and races scheduled for the folks on the east side of
the mountains. We've added information about the facility
in Spokane on the tracks page.

the east side of the mountains. We've added information

1/22/2009: Supermoto vs Metal
Mulisha:
Since it's the offseason (and a group of us were invited) we
loaded up 10 guys and head to the Hooker Creek Event Center in
Redmond, Oregon to be the side show for the FMX Challenge /
Metal Mulisha show. We had a good group of guys who could show
the crowd a sampling of supermoto. Everyone represented
the sport well and a good time was had by all. The Metal
Mulisha guys were super fun to hang with to. We even sent a few
of them out on our bikes for practice sessions.
Tom Stein put together a great video montage of some of the
racing:
