About MotoAmerica

MotoAmerica is the sanctioning body for the AMA Superbike Championship and serves as the official home of professional motorcycle road racing in the United States. Launched in 2015 under the leadership of three-time World Superbike Champion Wayne Rainey, MotoAmerica has grown into a world-class racing series that draws top riders competing across multiple classes, including Medallia Superbike, Supersport, Stock 1000, Twins Cup, and Junior Cup.

The series represents the highest level of two-wheeled road racing in North America, with competitors who go wheel-to-wheel at speeds that push both machine and rider to their absolute limits. Riders in the MotoAmerica Superbike class pilot 1000cc machines that produce upwards of 200 horsepower, navigating technical road courses with the kind of precision and bravery that makes every lap a spectacle.

Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta has long been one of MotoAmerica's marquee stops. The Georgia round consistently draws passionate fans, intense competition, and some of the most dramatic racing moments of the entire season. For Atlanta motorsports fans, this event is a calendar staple — the kind of event where multiple championship narratives play out on a single weekend.

What to Expect at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta

Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta sits in Braselton, Georgia, nestled among the rolling hills of Hall County northeast of the city. The 2.54-mile road course is internationally recognized as one of the most demanding and exciting tracks in North America, featuring dramatic elevation changes, high-speed sweepers, and the iconic Esses section that produces wheel-to-wheel battles unlike anything seen on a flat oval.

For fans, the trackside experience at Road Atlanta is immersive in a way that few motorsports venues match. General admission access allows spectators to walk the perimeter and find premium viewing spots along the course — the blind crests, the braking zones, and the chicane sections where riders are closest to the edge. The sound of superbikes at full throttle through the Georgia hills is something that registers in the chest, not just the ears.

The MotoAmerica weekend typically features multiple race days with qualifying sessions, support class races, and the headline Superbike feature races. Pit lane access options are often available, giving fans direct access to the teams, machines, and riders between sessions. This is motorsports at a human scale — you are close to the action in a way that stadium sports simply cannot replicate.

The venue offers ample parking across its expansive grounds, food vendors, merchandise opportunities, and viewing areas suited for families and hardcore motorsports enthusiasts alike. April weather in North Georgia is traditionally ideal for outdoor racing — cool mornings, warm afternoons, and the backdrop of spring greenery across the Braselton countryside.
