Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio has completed updates to its motorcycle racing road course facility, as requested by AMA Pro Racing. With these track improvements, Mid-Ohio is now approved for AMA National road race competition during wet weather conditions. Earlier in 2008, Mid-Ohio was listed as a venue that would not include competition in wet conditions. This upgrade in track safety and configuration at Mid-Ohio was necessary to ensure the future of the event on the AMA Superbike Schedule. Mid-Ohio is one of the premier events on the AMA Superbike tour, and has hosted at least one round of the Championships each season since 1983. With the Mid-Ohio Sports Car venue re-approved for wet weather racing, the upcoming AMA Superbike Championship National event on August 1-3 is scheduled to run rain or shine.
