WORLD MOTO CLASH ANNOUNCES SCHEDULE CHANGE
Richest Single Motorcycle Race Ever to Debut at Mid-Ohio September 18–20, 2026 & WMC’s Utah Motorsports Campus Race Stop Moves to Summer 2027
The World Moto Clash race series announces an important schedule change: The debut race will now take place at Mid-Ohio in Lexington, Ohio on September 18–20, 2026.
The first race of the series, originally scheduled for July 10–12 at Utah Motorsports Campus, has been moved to Summer 2027. Organizers reached a unanimous decision during a Board of Directors meeting earlier this week, with WMC CEO Stanford W. Crane, Jr. stating, “When we entered into the agreement with UMC, we were not aware of date conflicts with other race series. After subsequent conversations with riders, teams and well-respected motorcycle racing professionals, it became apparent that the best possible starting grid would not be achievable with a July 10–12 race date. So, we made the schedule change. We want every qualified racer to have a shot at competing for the $1,000,000 first-place cash prize, as well as creating a memorable fan experience.”
