    2013 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Dates?

    Planing a US road trip for late 2013 and trying to link with a Lucas Oil Pro Outdoor Motocross Championship meeting - probably Steel City.

    Does anyone have an idea when the dates are published? Can't see any yet.
    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Thanks Scott

    Have you got any tips. Like, are the VIP seats worth it - bearing in mind it may be my 1st and only US MX?

    BTW did you get to Loket last year? Didn't see you there, lol.

    the last one i did i got VIP tickets, and when you are travelling that far its good to have good seats, and they normally have a tent for it as well which in the heat of a American Summer is a god send,

    I did Locket and Lommell last year (as well as a British National at Fox Hill), with Press Passes, Stayed with the HM PLant KTM team which had some Kiwi's i new as the mechanics, was an awesome weekend thier for sure,

    I have a wedding to attend next year in Las Vegas, the week before Red Bud, so ill get thier hopefully,

    The press passes would have been awesome. We went to Loket last year. We did a 7 week E/European road trip and it was the only wet day we experienced............. (There's something about bikes and rain going together?)

    It was a great experience and the rain made it specially so, as it sorted the men from the boys. I reckon most NZ club MX'ers would not have been able to ride around that track that day. Agree?

    not really with locket, even with the big step down, and the rythem section along the back the track was not any hander than Harrisville or Taupo or a few other NZ tracks, for sure most our riders may not jump the big stuff bu they would get around slowly,

    Lommell on the other hand, by the last race i think most would giv eup after half a lap,

    it was an awersome place tho, and Prague on friday and sunday nights went alright as well,

    Looks like SteelCity got booted from the schedule. Dang, Unadilla maybe, she's the middle of nowhere, but cool track.

    https://maps.google.co.nz/maps?q=mot...motocross&z=15

    Which actually makes me think it would be damn handy to have a US map with where the tracks all are.

    Hey guys, Thanks for the updates.

    Damn, we were looking at an early Sept East Coast meet for it to work for us and that looks like it won't happen.............
