Glen Helen's New Race: $100,000 Privateer Challenge Explained

#motocross
This Week in MXA, episode 201, presented by O'Neal, is all about the new Glen Helen MotoFest happening May 15th-18th of 2025. Yes, it's a long way out, but Bud Feldkamp, the owner of Glen Helen Raceway, wants you to mark your calendar for the weekend between the Salt Lake City Supercross and the Fox Raceway National.

What is the MotoFest? It's a four-day festival-style event to be held annually on the
weekend immediately before round 1 of the outdoor Pro Nationals. The event starts with the "Stopwatch National" on Thursday the 15th with a combined 250/450 Pro class, with two 30-minute motos and a $10,000 purse. Friday will be the amateur TT Scrambles race. Saturday will be the motocross race on the main track, featuring the Privateer Pro showcase with 250 and 450 classes for privateers only, battling for $20,000 in purse money ($10,000 each class) and a combined $80,000 in sponsorship money, to be paid out to the top two 250 and top two 450 overall finishes on the day as sponsorship. That money will be awarded to those riders as $5000 for each round of the AMA Nationals they race, up to four rounds.
