DAYTONA BEACH, FL – November 21, 2024 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Buckle up, race fans! The 2025 Progressive American Flat Track season is bringing a new level of excitement with the Triple Challenge. It’s a fresh, fast-paced format that’s ready to shake up the dirt, put riders’ skills to the test, and keep you on the edge of your seat!
What’s the Triple Challenge, you ask? Think of it as three times the action, strategy, and drama—packed into one epic night of racing. This electrifying new format will debut at select doubleheader events:
- Lima Half-Mile I
- Jackpine Gypsies Short Track I
- Springfield Mile I
Here’s How It Works
The Triple Challenge turns up the heat with three races where every lap matters.
Race 1: A fast and furious 10-lap sprint where riders race for points (23 for 1st, 19 for 2nd, and so on). The results? Not just bragging rights—they also set the stage (aka the starting grid) for Race 2.
Race 2: Fifteen laps of adrenaline-packed action where the stakes are doubled. Riders earn twice as many points as in Race 1 (46 for 1st, 38 for 2nd, and so on). With twice the reward and grid positions for the final race on the line, the tension is sky-high.
Race 3: The grand finale! Twenty laps of high-octane action with triple the points of Race 1 up for grabs (69 for 1st, 57 for 2nd, and so on). The stakes couldn’t be higher as riders battle for ultimate glory.
At the end of Race 3, all points are tallied to crown the night’s overall top three in each class. And if there’s a tie? It all boils down to who came in clutch and delivered the best finishing position in Race 3.
Why It’s a Game-Changer
The Triple Challenge isn’t just about shaking up the format—it’s about creating heart-pounding, can’t-look-away moments for fans. Riders will need to adapt, strategize, and push their limits to come out on top. It’s a test of endurance, skill, and pure grit.
Mark your calendars: The Triple Challenge kicks off Friday, June 27, at the Allen County Fairgrounds in Lima, Ohio. Don’t miss this historic debut—Round 7 of the 2025 Progressive AFT season is set to be a game-changer!
