The Brett Downey Foundation will return to advise track flaggers and provide infield safety monitoring. Together the medical and infield staff at the AMA Amateur National will provide unprecedented medical assistance for national competitors. 

In addition, Air Evac Lifeteam will be returning to provide air medical transportation in the unlikely event that a rider sustains an injury that requires an air flight transport. Air Evac Lifeteam creates a secondary insurance that will ensure that riders or family members will not incur any out-of-pocket expenses related to air medical transport from the ranch.

The National class structure includes classes for youth riders on 50cc bikes all the way up to vet and masters classes. The race will follow a three-moto format over the course of one week. Racers have previously qualified at Area Qualifiers and then Regional Championships in order to participate in the National event. 

The race action will be broadcast live daily via www.RacerTV.com, July 30-August 3, for a total of 40+ hours of live coverage. In addition, two one-hour highlight shows featuring the event will air on NBC Sports Network in the Fall.
