Factory Pro Tuning also provides the Official Dyno for Formula USA Sportbike and Thunderbike classes.

Formula USA / CCS Director of Competition Kevin Elliott commented that, “Homestead provides a great vacation destination for this 21st Annual Fall event, and we are very pleased to be able to bring this event to the Homestead area, which has hosted CCS road race events for over a decade. We also look forward to returning to Daytona in 2005 after the renovations.”
