PICKERINGTON, Ohio — Thirteen American Motorcyclist Association No. 1 plates will be up for grabs at the 2023 AMA Amateur Road Race Grand Championship, which runs Oct. 19-22 at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla.

“The AMA Road Race Grand Championship is always a stellar event,” AMA Track Racing Manager Ken Saillant said, “and we can’t wait to get down to historic Daytona to see some fierce competition out on the track with several No. 1 plates and AMA awards up for grabs.”

The AMA Amateur Road Race Grand Championship, sanctioned by the AMA and operated by the American Superbike Racing Association (ASRA), will include four full days of road racing action and coincide with the ASRA team challenge series and ASRA sprint races during the four-day event at Daytona International Speedway.

“We have been making progress in the sport and bringing many improvements to motorcycle racing,” said Alex Spellman, Partner of the ASRA. “This event is a celebration of the AMA and will crown several champions.”

Racers will have the opportunity to compete for AMA No. 1 plates in seven different classes.

Outside of the national championships, other awards presented at the event include the Nicky Hayden AMA Road Race Horizon Award, the AMA Road Race Youth Award, the AMA Road Race Top Novice Award and the AMA Road Race Vet/Senior Award.
