Motovid.com is proud to partner with the Central Roadracing Association (CRA) to support its expanded 2026 season, highlighting new MotoRace programs offered exclusively for licensed competitors and aspiring racers ahead of round 4 on July 24-26 at the freshly repaved Blackhawk Farms Raceway in South Beloit, IL.
The Friday, July 24 event format is not a track day. The MotoRace sessions scheduled are specifically designed run groups for the club racing community, helping riders prepare for competitive grid action with structured, racer-focused sessions.
CRA is a volunteer-run 501(c)(7) non-profit social organization founded in 1970 and based in Minnesota. For over 55 years, CRA has provided the Midwest’s home for safe, organized motorcycle road racing through high-quality programs emphasizing safety, education, good sportsmanship, and long-term sustainability.CRA events feature camaraderie, competition, contingency awards, and substantial cash purses for select classes. The 4th round of its 2026 season marks CRA’s expansion to the BFR circuit with support from Motovid.com.
Additionally this mid-summer weekend is the exclusive 2-wheel club regional race at Blackhawk Farms Raceway for the month of July. With $5,000 in cash purses on the line across Trophy Dash classes, it’s a compelling reason for riders to grid up and compete with CRA.
