Reno Arenacross Rounds Canceled
C
ycle City Promotions an-
nounced last week that
rounds seven and eight of the
Kicker AMA Arenacross series
will now take place at the Tampa
MX Raceway on Saturday, Febru-
ary 27 and Sunday, February 28.
These rounds were previously
scheduled for February 5 and
6 in Reno, Nevada, but had to
be postponed due to Covid-19
restrictions in the state. These
newly announced rounds will
replace the AMA Arenacross
Open initially scheduled and
announced for those dates in
Tampa, Florida.
"We are very excited to host
our Kicker AMA Arenacross Se-
ries in Tampa, Florida," said Tod
Hammock, Cycle City Promotions
founder. "The Tampa MX Race-
way provides a great opportunity
for us to create an oversized aren-
across track, in the same way that
the Lazy E Arena provided that to
us a few weekends ago."
The race-day schedule, includ-
ing start times, will be announced
in the near future. Additionally,
rider registration will be open
later this week.
"We're very excited to be
bringing this event to the area,"
John Sigismondi of the Tampa
MX Raceway stated, "with all the
restrictions going on, Florida is
a great location to get out and
enjoy an exciting event during a
weekend without an AMA Super-
cross event. For the locals this
is a great opportunity to experi-
ence an action-packed evening
up close and in person with top
professional athletes.
"In addition, we'll be featuring a
Pit Bike Grand Prix along with the
PureKana USA FMX FreeStyle
MX riders doing tons of tricks
including backflips throughout
the evening." CN
