The WPSA PowerSports ATV Tour will run 10 races at eight venues during the 2007 Championship Season. In addition, the Tour will kick off 2007 with a four-race “Spring Training 2007” schedule at tracks in Oklahoma, Florida, Georgia and Virginia.

Due to the overwhelming success of last weekend’s season finale at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park, the Tour will bookend its national schedule with events at the New Jersey track. The schedule features several other tracks from the 2006 season, as well as a few additions. The Tour will continue to race throughout the Midwest, Southeast and Northeast.

“We’re pleased to announce our 2007 schedule, which will showcase some of the top venues in major markets throughout the United States,” said PowerSports Entertainment, Inc. CEO Rick Murphy. “This schedule features some of this nation’s top ATV racing facilities and continues to place the PowerSports ATV Tour in key markets.”

The pre-season schedule represents a first in professional ATV racing, and will allow all racers the ability to participate in important pre-season practice. Spring Training 2007 is open to all racers.

“Spring Training 2007 will allow our racers, teams, and fans the unique opportunity to compete on championship-level tracks, without being concerned about points,” said Murphy. “This makes for an important addition to our schedule, giving the fans a sneak preview of the Tour, and our riders practice coming into the National Tour.”

Spring Training 2007 starts Feb. 17-18 in Stillwater, Okla., followed by events in Waldo, Fla. March 3-4; at a yet-to-be-named venue in Georgia March 24-25; and finishing up at Virginia Motorsports Park outside of Richmond, Va. April 7-8.

The Championship Schedule starts at Raceway Park April 14-15, followed by a double championship weekend in Stillwater, Okla. April 28-29. The Tour returns to South Fork Dirt Riders near Springfield, Ill. May 12-13. Daniel Boone MX in London, Ky. will host the Tour June 2-3.

Another double championship event in the upper Midwest is scheduled for June 16-17, ahead of races at Virginia Motorsports Park July 7-8 and a return to Wild Cat Creek MX outside Indianapolis July 21-22.

The season finale is scheduled for Aug. 18-19 at Raceway Park.
