The X Games have announced their three-eighths mile clay oval Flat-Track at the Circuit of The Americas and it’s pretty freaking awesome. This will be the first X Games Flat-Track race and there has been no shortage of excitement with it.
The race is set to take place on June 4, at Circuit of The Americas as a new medal sport. Harley-Davidson is the main sponsor so the official name is….you guessed it….Harley-Davidson Flat-Track Racing. Like any other name would have worked, come on! Everyone at the Biker Planet dating community is freaking excited about this, so expected to hear more about it on our Facebook page.
Oh, what about that new Flat-Track?
This event marks a potential new ground for a sport that’s been gaining a lot of steam in past years. Viewership is expected to be as large as ever.
The track is three-eighths in length and is shaped like an oval. The corners are super tight and come off extended straights that will make those corners incredibly complex.
Translation: The X Games Harley-Davidson Flat-Track race is going to be awesome as ever.
