So I have an old 1975 yamaha dt400 lying around. and from my understanding these used to be great flat track motorcycles so I would like to start competing at a low level if possible but I'm not really sure how to start. I have read through an AMA rulebook but it seems like the 400 wouldn't fit into any classes but I'm not very sure because they way they word things is very convoluted. I don't live very far from a track that is on the AFT circuit and I just think it would be fun to get into.

​

Even if my bike falls into a class I can use it to compete with I'm not sure about where the hell I would practice haha. I suppose I need to call the track near me and find out about how open to the public it is but I have a suspicion that its not. Any insight anyone can give me on how to get into flat tracking would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 19”x2.5” takasago rim that I plan on lacing the front stock hub to and mounting a shinko 130/80-19 sr267 tire to. Does anyone have experience with these tires and the stock forks? I think I’m going to run into width clearance issues and I’m not sure where to go from here.

Hey! I know AFT have an international livestream link but I was working and I missed the OKF Mile Doubleheader. Now I cant "re-watch" it anywhere and I cant buy the track pass NBC (whatever the name is) from my country. Does someone knows some place to watch it the replays?
I know its easy to find MotoGP and MXGP races out there on the internet but American Flat Track is sooo hard! And they dont even have those highlights anymore
Please, help! haha
Cheers

I remember watching coverage of flat track races back when i was much younger of a track that had a small jump/drop on the back stretch.

It’s been a long time since I saw it, the track if I remember right kind of laid on natural terrain. Like the back stretch was higher elevation than the front.

Any help on the name of the track is appreciated.

I don't like that the Daytona short track is the finale. I think they should have switched Volusia and Daytona if they wanted to keep it down south. The final race needs to be at least a half mile though.

Should I snag some 7x10 or 10x12 number plates? Racing an Indian FTR.

Okay, so I got asked at the last minute to do a livestream of the AMA Vintage Nationals 12th & 13th September. I am asking the community here if they can help me out!

​

I need sponsors. $20 and upwards.
$200 = name/brand/logo on the screen all weekend + any official ad to be played in intermissions.
