Inside sources say that negotiations over a 2002 AMA National at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course have stalled over AMA Pro Racing’s demand that the Lexington, Ohio track pay a $70,000 increase in sanction fees (compared to the 2001 fees).

The impasse has caused a delay in the release of the 2002 AMA Superbike Championship calendar.
