DAYTONA BEACH, FL – December 13, 2023 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Tickets are now on sale to witness the 2024 Progressive American Flat Track, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, season kick off in electric fashion at the Flat Track at Daytona International Speedway on Thursday, March 7 and Friday, March 8 during Daytona Bike Week.
The DAYTONA Short Track I & II will again usher in the new season with back-to-back evenings of close-range, unpredictable action in one of motorsports’ most iconic venues.
Fans will see reigning Mission SuperTwins king Jared Mees open his quest to become the first-ever ten-time conqueror of the fabled Grand National Championship.

Meanwhile, the prodigious Kody Kopp will seek to create history of his own and become the only rider to claim three titles in the fiercely contested Parts Unlimited AFT Singles presented by KICKER class.
