DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (May 7, 2024) – Progressive American Flat Track, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, announced today that tickets are officially on sale for this year’s Memphis Shades DuQuoin Mile at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds on July 6 in Du Quoin, Illinois.
The event will again serve as a celebration of motorcycle dirt track racing, bringing together the superstars of today and tomorrow. Saturday’s Progressive AFT round will cap off a full week of competition that will also crown this year’s amateur national champions during the 2024 Mission Foods AMA Flat Track Grand Championship, sanctioned by the American Motorcyclist Association from June 30-July 6.
Expect an epic conclusion to the week as the “Magic Mile” traditionally plays host to some of the most thrilling and competitive races of the season. Last year’s Mission AFT SuperTwins Main Event saw Jared Mees score the victory in a nailbiter with Brandon Robinson (0.033 seconds), Dallas Daniels (0.097), and Briar Bauman (0.160) all in contention right up to the checkered flag.
And if possible, the Parts Unlimited AFT Singles race was an even tighter affair with Tom Drane winning out just ahead of Chase Saathoff (0.011 seconds), Trent Lowe (0.016), Max Whale (0.081), Kody Kopp (0.106), and Trevor Brunner (0.262).
The 2024 rematch promises to be another magical occasion while offering a sneak peak of the sport’s future heroes.
