T
he Ricky Carmichael Daytona Amateur
Supercross returned for its now 12th an-
nual trip to Daytona International Speed-
way where amateurs from all over the country
got a chance to race on the same course that
the pros raced on during the Monster Energy
Daytona Supercross. In all, 1637 entries lined
up to compete for championships in 35 ama-
teur and 34 vintage classes.
New for 2021, the RCSX also serves as
an AMA Road to Supercross points-earning
event with its introduction of the 250 Futures
class. This new class will also be featured at
the AMA Amateur National at Loretta Lynn's.
The 250 Futures race was perhaps the
premier race of the day, and for sure, the
most anticipated race of the weekend. The
race was stacked, since anyone eligible and
hoping to advance to AMA Supercross was
entered, as participants earned points toward
advancement into the pro ranks.
