The Central Motorcycle Roadracing Association would like to invite mini road racers across the country to the upcoming Shogun Motorsports 8-hour endurance race at picturesque Oak Hill Raceway on Saturday, June 14th. This will be the fourth round of the Shogun Motorsports-sponsored CMRA Mini Endurance Series, and this 8-hour race is also a crossover event with the Texas Mini Grand Prix organization and will also feature the CMRA big bike sprint series races on Sunday. The four CMRA mini endurance classes allow participation by virtually every size mini and engine configuration currently being raced in the United States, and CMRA competition allows for licensed riders as young as 10-years-old.
