Our Club

After 20+ years of developing our formula for fun racing we have it down to an amazing program that is challenging but family friendly, safe but exhilarating. Old bikes, new bikes and everything in between!

Where We Ride

Motocross has always been a tough sport but for many today’s obstacles represent more risk than reward. Our approach is to get as close to a natural terrain layout as we can. Jumps, bumps, berms and loam, the way you remember it was. Glen Helen and LACR are our home tracks.

Why We Do It

We do it for one simple reason, we love it. The sport doesn’t have to leave you behind if you don’t want it to. Stay involved, get re-involved or get involved for the first time with American Retrocross. Simply the best place to race.

Race Rules

We have enough rules to create a level playing field and no more.

  • 1.) Sign up closes at 8:45am SHARP. No exceptions, so please don’t ask.
  • 2.) Rider’s meeting is at 8:45am and is mandatory. No refunds after rider’s meeting.
  • 3.) Practice begins at 9:00am and is segregated into bike categories to create a safer mix of machines. Only ride your category.
  • 4.) An ARX official will lead the first lap of practice to assure everyone is clear on the layout. Do not pass the lead rider on the first lap.
  • 5.) If you do not ride practice you cannot race. Simply too dangerous.
  • 6.) Pit speed is 5 mph and you must wear a helmet.
  • 7.) ARX is all about friendly racing. Aggressive riding will not be tolerated.
  • 8.) Riding in a class you are not signed up for or allowing someone to ride in a class they are not signed up for will result in disqualification.
  • 9.) Kick stands must be removed before practice.
  • 10.) Have contrasting numbers on all three number plates.

Nope but there is a rule page. We don’t think that racing at this level needs any more than that. Click here: https://americanretrocross.org/rules-and-class-structure/

Not after the riders meeting is concluded. We have no control over your bike prep or physical issues.

No sorry. This is a Vintage to Vet racing club and we cater to that age group. There are lots of great racing organizations that cater to kids and small bikes.

Minimum of 5 events to qualify for year end awards but you have to be a member for all 5. Membership will not give you retroactive points.
