"RCSX has quickly grown into a premier amateur race, and I always look forward to returning to Daytona International Speedway in the great state of Florida,” said 15-time Champion, Ricky Carmichael. “This event provides the perfect time for me to re-connect with the up-and-coming amateur racers, their families and fans. Of course, we can’t forget how much fun it is to watch the guys and girls battle it out on the track on their journey to a number one plate."

Amateur riders and their families are encouraged to come down early and camp on the Daytona infield where hookups are available. Move-in, check-in and camping begins on Friday, March 9, so amateur families can watch the pros compete on Saturday night at the legendary Daytona Supercross.
