DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (February 9, 2026) – Progressive American Flat Track, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, announced today that tickets are officially on sale for the Yamaha Atlanta Short Track. Scheduled for Saturday, March 21, the event marks Round 3 of the 2026 season and the series' anticipated return to the red clay of Senoia Raceway.

The Georgia venue has quickly cemented its reputation as a pivotal stop on the circuit. For the past three seasons, the high-banked, 3/8-mile oval has served as a springboard for championship battles that lasted until the final checkered flag of the season. Last season, Briar Bauman brought home the Harley-Davidson XG750R's maiden Mission AFT SuperTwins win, setting the stage for a months-long duel with Dallas Daniels, who ultimately prevailed to secure the 2025 Mission AFT SuperTwins Championship.

The 2026 edition of the Yamaha Atlanta Short Track promises an expanded slate of action featuring four distinct classes: Mission AFT SuperTwins, KICKER AFT Singles, AFT AdventureTrackers and the emerging AFT ProSport 450. It will mark the first time both the AFT AdventureTrackers and AFT ProSport 450 take to the red clay of Senoia Raceway.

Originally built in 1969 by Hence Pollard, the facility has undergone a modern resurgence under the leadership of the Pollard family and short-track standout Bubba Pollard. Beyond the on-track competition, fans can enjoy a festival-style atmosphere that includes live music, a premier fireworks display, an interactive Fan Zone and Kids Zone, multi-day camping opportunities and a variety of local food vendors.

A wide range of ticketing options and premium experiences are available for fans of all ages. General admission tickets are priced at $50 for adults, while students can attend for $30 with valid student identification presented at the event. Children ages 12 and under are admitted free with the purchase of a paid adult ticket. Reserved Grandstand seating is available for all ages, with Row 1 priced at $70 and Rows 2 and above available for $60.

Fans looking to get closer to the action can enhance their race day with the Trackside Fan Experience. Opening Ceremonies access includes infield viewing of the opening ceremonies and one segment of racing action, priced at $135 for all ages or available as a $95 add-on to an existing ticket. Practice Viewing offers infield access for one segment of on-track action during practice sessions and is available for $110 for all ages or $70 as an add-on.

Pit access is also available, with Pit Passes priced at $50 for adults and $30 for children ages 12 and under. A Trackside Entry Ticket, available for all ages, is offered at $85. Reserved Trackside Parking can be purchased for $100 per vehicle, while Multi-Day Camping Passes are available for $75.

Sugarlands will activate at two rounds during the 2026 season – March 21 in Atlanta and August 22 in Peoria - providing fans with a fun, interactive experience that brings the spirit of the Smokies directly to the track, further celebrating the lifestyle and community that defines the sport. Mark & Digger, stars of the hit television show Moonshiners, will serve as Grand Marshals at both the Atlanta and Peoria events, where Sugarlands will also host special meet-and-greet opportunities with the duo for fans. 

"American Flat Track is built on passion, authenticity and community, creating a natural alignment with who we are as a brand,' said Patrick Sullivan, Sugarlands chief commercial officer. "We're excited to tap into the culture surrounding the sport and bring our award-winning moonshines and new Broken Antler Flavored Whiskey to the track in a fun, engaging way throughout the 2026 season and beyond." 

The Sugarlands American Flat Track Kick-Off Party Presented by Giuseppe's Steel City Pizza and Jostens will serve as the primary hub for fans, riders, and industry leaders to gather before the first green flag drops. Details regarding the event and specific fan engagements will be announced in the coming weeks. The Kick-Off Party will feature specialty Sugarlands Shine and Broken Antler Flavored Whiskey cocktails, crafted specifically for the event, to toast the beginning of the AMA Pro Racing season.

Racing Discussion / VP Racing Fuels, Inc. Returns ...
Last post by Biketographer - February 04, 2026, 03:54:01 PM
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (February 4, 2026) — Progressive American Flat Track, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, announced today that VP Racing Fuels, Inc. will continue as the Official Fuel Supplier of Progressive AFT for the 2026 season. This marks the seventh consecutive year of collaboration, underscoring the strength and longevity of the partnership.

"The partnership we've built with VP Racing Fuels, Inc. over the past seven seasons has been exceptional," said Gene Crouch, CEO of AMA Pro Racing. "Their commitment to our series and to the paddock is unwavering, and it continues to make a meaningful impact on our sport. We're excited to carry that momentum into 2026 and look forward to another successful year working alongside the VP team."

For 2026, Progressive AFT will transition to VP Racing's T4+ as the spec fuel for the entire series. Replacing the C10 racing fuel used in previous years, T4+ offers a triple advantage for competitors: it lowers costs for race teams, delivers premium performance, and is widely available at powersports dealerships across the country. Designed for stock or modified 4‑stroke engines, T4+ also provides riders with improved throttle response and up to 2% more power over T4 — benefits that align closely with the demands of flat track competition. This shift further connects the high‑performance world of professional flat track with everyday riders by aligning competition fuel with a product available nationwide.

"VP Racing Fuels, Inc. is excited to continue our partnership with American Flat Track," said Bruce Hendel, senior vice president of VP Racing Fuels, Inc. "Introducing T4+ will offer better performance and easier access for competitors, thanks to its availability at powersports dealers across the country."

Since 1975, VP Racing Fuels, Inc. has powered more winners across two and four wheels than any other brand. Now celebrating more than 50 years as the World Leader in Fuel Technology®, the company continues to demonstrate an unwavering commitment to innovation and to the growth of Progressive American Flat Track.
