From a press release issued by USCRA:

FIM North American 125 GP Championship

The United States Classic Racing Association in conjunction with the North American Motorcycle Union have secured the first annual North American FIM 125cc Championship race to be held August 1 at New Hampshire International Speedway. This race will bring together the best 125 grand prix riders from across the US and Canada to compete for a 4000$ purse. First place will take home 1000$ and the payout continues to 20th place! The competition couldn’t possibly be hotter on the tight and twisty Loudon circuit, where riding skill overcomes outright power.

We are running the race as a professional, international event. Grid positions will be determined by qualifying sessions or heat races on Saturday, and all 125 practices will be exclusively for this class. The race Sunday afternoon will be 25 laps to separate the men from the boys, or vice versa! Rising Sun Cycles will be on hand with their trailer filled with the latest GP parts and machinery from HRC and Yamaha.

To ensure the success of this event we really need everyone in the club who owns a 125 grand prix machine to be out there on the grid. Offering a significant purse poses a huge risk to the club in case of poor attendance or weather, so please plan on attending. Of special interest to owners of older grand prix bikes will be a special prize offered to the first Pre-1994 machine across the line regardless of position. Due to the championship nature of this race, licenses from any North American racing organization will be recognized, only membership in the AMA, CMA, or an FIM sanctioned national organization (ie: ACU, etc.) is required. AMA and CMA memberships will be sold at the event
