The NMA Ponca City Grand National Championship is set up via regions. Each region will hold qualifiers during May and June. Each region will have 4 races events or as an option up to 6 events. The Grand National Championship has a new home at the bigger, better and more convenient location - the Oklahoma Motorsports Complex in Norman, Oklahoma, just minutes from Oklahoma City.

"This year the event will be July 22 - 28, 2012"

The event schedule is listed by region along with each regional manager's name and phone number. The rules and premise for the Nationals are as follows:

1. The first regional event entered by a rider will dictate which region he will qualify in; i.e. a rider from Texas may enter either a Texas region or Ozark region event, but must participate in a least 2 qualifiers in the same region in which he chooses to begin his competition activity and finish in the top 12 based on the entire regional series of races.
2. To qualify for the Grand National Championship finals, a rider must participate in the classes he enters in a minimum of 2 of the events in his region and finish in the top 12 overall in each of those classes. Points from all Regional Qualifier Events count towards top 12 finishers in each class.
3. AGE GROUPS AND RIDER CLASSIFICATIONS. All age groups for P.Wees, Jr. Cycles, Mini Cycles and Super Mini Class will be frozen as of Jan. 1 of this year and all Motorcycle classifications will be frozen as of Jan. 1, of this year. Whatever age or motorcycle classification you hold or have ridden in or have been moved to by another club on that date is the class or age group you must qualify in and remain in throughout the qualifiers and final event.

IF A RIDER ADVANCES TO A HIGHER CLASS WITH ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION AFTER HE RACES HIS FIRST NMA QUALIFIER, HE MUST THEN MOVE TO THAT HIGHER CLASS WITH NMA AND PARTICIPATE AT THE GRAND NATIONAL FINALS IN THAT HIGHER CLASS.

NOTE: Riders who qualify for the AMA "A" class must ride Pro with NMA and riders who qualify in the AMA "B" class must ride Intermediate with NMA. See NMA rules regarding rider classifications.

License in the NMA for all participants is mandatory. All license applications must be mailed directly to the NMA main office. NMA will assign all riders numbers and classifications, etc. and cards will be mailed to the rider by NMA.

Each Regional Manager will maintain the riders point totals as the events take place in their region. The top 12 point accumulators in each class from each region will qualify for the Grand National Finals. Total points for classes in each region are figured out after all regional events are completed. After the completion of the qualifiers, each regional manager will send a list of those riders who qualified for the Grand Nationals. The rider will then receive an information packet containing the entry form along with important information pertaining to the Event. This packet will be sent from the NMA main office.

CONTACT YOUR REGIONAL MANAGER FOR INFO ON THE QUALIFIERS IN YOUR REGION.

NOTE: Race 2 or more regional events and finish in the top 12 overall and you're on the way to Ponca City Grand National Championship.
