AMA Announces
Two New Extreme
Off-Road Series
N
ine events in two qualifying
series provide more op-
portunities to secure a spot in
the 2020 AMA Extreme Off-
Road Grand Championship, the
Tennessee Knockout (TKO) on
August 14-16 at the Trials Training
Center in Sequatchie, Tennes-
see.
The new format and additional
events open up 26 more spots at
the TKO.
"With this new format, more
riders can qualify directly to the
Saturday afternoon and Sunday
races, instead of having to race
their way in
on Saturday
morning,"
AMA Off-
Road Racing
Manager
Erek Kudla
said. "The nine qualifying events
bring extreme off-road competi-
tion to regions across the nation,
and we welcome back several
events to the qualifier schedule
that did a great job serving as
AMA State Championships in
2019."
Riders can secure starting
spots in the Saturday afternoon
TKO-2 race based on their par-
ticipation at any of the qualifying
events. The top 10 finishers in
each event move directly to the
TKO-2 competition.
Additionally, the top three
riders from each qualifying se-
ries—who are not on the "invited
riders" list—skip Saturday's TKO-1
and TKO-2 competitions and
compete against the world's best
extreme off-road riders in the
Sunday pro races.
"When we started the Ten-
nessee Knockout event in 2011,
there were just a few extreme off-
road racing events taking place,"
event organizer Eric Peronnard
said. "Now, as we prepare for the
10th edition of the TKO, it's great
to see the popularity of these
types of events growing. We are
proud to be the host event for the
AMA Extreme Off-Road Grand
Championship."
