The combination of Daytona’s facility and Ricky Carmichael’s leadership makes for an unforgettable weekend. MX Sports, the same organization that hosts the largest motocross race in the world - AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship presented by Lucas Oil at Loretta Lynn Ranch – always looks forward to producing this special three-day program. Unlike the Loretta Lynn Amateur National format, riders do not need to qualify to participate at the event.  

“We are looking forward to greeting the best amateur riders in the world at this year’s RCSX,” said Ricky Carmichael. “It is always a thrill to watch our young, and old, athletes compete at a place that is very special to me, Daytona International Speedway. The speedway has some really cool things happening to celebrate it 50^th year and you will not want to miss them.” 

The class structure includes classes for youth riders on 50cc bikes all the way to Golden Masters (60+). The race will follow a supercross format, using heat races and last chance qualifiers to seed the field of riders into a main event in each class, over the course of two days. To honor our military men and women, along with first responders, a newly formed class, Warrior, has been added to the order on Tuesday, March 10. The Warrior class is for 122-Open CC motorcycles, and current or retired military/first responder men and women.

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 6, so amateur families can watch the pros compete on Saturday night at the legendary Daytona Supercross.

“This is always the most exciting time of the year,” said Director of MX Sports, Tim Cotter. “The Daytona Supercross gives us reason to get out of our winter slumber and bet back on the track. This year will be extra special as Daytona celebrates the 50^th running of the Daytona Supercross! Our racing families will get to be a part of all of the historical festivities and then race on the iconic infield of the Daytona International Speedway.” 

The eleventh annual Ricky Carmichael Daytona Supercross Championship will take place Sunday, March 8 through Tuesday, March 10 at the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida.

RCSX will once again serve as the opening round of the American Motocross Majors, which is composed of five premier amateur motocross events in the United States. This event will include OEM support, rider contingency, along with the industry’s leading companies in attendance following the pro racing action. In addition, many long-time sponsors will provide on-site activation and support throughout the three-day event.
