During the past 50 years, AFM events have included racers who went on to National and International fame: Kenny Roberts, Eddie Lawson, Kevin Schwantz, Mike Hailwood, John McLaughlin, and many more. There have been chapters in New York, Florida, Illinois, Mississippi, and Nevada in addition to the original California chapters.
