AMA Pro Flat Track Announces Cancellation of Lake Odessa I-96 Speedway Round

AMA Pro Racing Releases Updated 2012 AMA Pro Flat Track Schedule

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (June 9, 2012) - AMA Pro Racing regrets to announce the cancellation of AMA Pro Flat Track Round 7, scheduled for July 14, 2012 at I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, MI. Despite best efforts by all involved, the promoter has decided to cancel the event. After debuting on the AMA Pro Harley-Davidson Insurance Grand National Championship presented by Motorcycle-Superstore.com and Lucas Oil schedule in 1993, the Michigan Half Mile has come and gone from the calendar over the years but has always remained a fan-favorite. Although the event at I-96 Speedway was the only Harley-Davidson Insurance Grand National Championship race scheduled to be held in the flat track hot bed of Michigan for 2012, fans are invited to following along as the 16-race series will be featured on National TV. Ten rounds of the 2012 AMA Pro Harley-Davidson Insurance Grand National Championship presented by Motorcycle-Superstore.com and Lucas Oil will be aired on MAVTV with select programs slotted to air on both MAVTV and NBC Sports.
