Motorcycles, Bikini Contest, and BBQ are all on the Menu at This NJ Racetrack - The Star-Ledger - NJ.com (blog)
The closest many New Jerseyans come to seeing a motorcycle weaving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed is on the Garden State Parkway, on the way home from the Jersey Shore. This weekend, however, they can witness some of the greatest riders in the nation compete for the AMA Championship at New Jersey Motorsports Park. While they are there they can also take in a bikini contest, and feast on some incredible bbq food, and much more.
New Jersey Motorsports Park is the biggest racing facility in the Garden State, yet probably, the least well-known to the many NJ race fans who attend the various motorsports events presented every week by the short tracks and drag strips of the state. Sitting on 500 acres in Millville, New Jersey, the facility could most likely hold all the state's other tracks within it's confines. It features two world-class road courses, a premiere Karting facility, and has hosted events by race organizations such as ARCA, and Rolex Grand-Am Racing.
This weekend the 2.25 mile Thunderbolt Raceway will host the final, and deciding races for the AMA Pro Road Racing Championships. Four champions, in all, will be crowned this weekend. One each in AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike, AMA Daytona SportBike, and Motorcycle-Superstore.com Super Sport East, which will all run events on both Saturday and Sunday. The other being in the Vance & Hines XR1200 series, which will run only one main event on Sunday.
New Jersey Motorsports Park always gives the fans attending their events much more than just great racing, and this weekend is no exception. Two stunt shows, Hell on Wheels, and Tony's Stunts, featuring Tony Carbajal, will perform three shows each, both days at the facility. There will also be a fan walk for spectators on both days, which will be lead by several of the weekend's competitors, who will point out tricky spots and the best places to pass on the road course.
Saturday night will feature the AMA Pro weekend Clubhouse bbq from 6pm to 11pm, following the day of racing. There will be live music from the band "Fame and Fortune", drink specials, a beer pong tournament, and both an umbrella girl contest, and bikini contest, to go along with the great food. Admission to this part of the event is included in the cost of admission for Saturday.
So this weekend if you're looking for speeding motorcycles, bikinis, and some great bbq, all without getting some sand in your shorts, set your GPS to New Jersey Motorsports Park, rather than the Jersey Shore. Afterall, wouldn't it be better to see some professionals be crowned champion, than hundreds of Snooki look-alikes annoying you on the boardwalk.
