FLATTRACK HISTORY
Considered the oldest, longest-running and most traditional motorcycle racing, is commonly referred to as “dirt track” racing. Flat track was born of the delirious, dangerous board track races of the early 20th century. Organizers would build ovals out of oiled wood planks and put on weekend races. Originally, motorcycles pulled bicycles onto 45° banked wooden tracks to race, but very quickly motorcycles replaced bicycles altogether advancing into fast and powerful machines. Soon board track races became too dangerous for both riders and spectators and as a result, promoters constructed oval tracks with dirt banks, and flat track racing became a sensation across the U.S, drawing huge crowds everywhere.
Flat track racing is the only type of motorcycle racing that originated in the United States.
