Spend Memorial Day Weekend Watching Pro Motocross Open its Season at Fox Raceway in Pala

Memorial Day weekend gets a strong option this year. The Fox Raceway National brings the opening round of the Pro Motocross Championship to Pala, kicking off the 56th season of the series right here in North County.

Eleven rounds, ten states, 22 motos across a full summer – and the championship starts at Fox Raceway, about an hour north of downtown San Diego. First-round results set the tone, and this field is worth watching from the jump.

The Lawrence Brothers, Chase Sexton, and a Field That Came to Race

Defending Pro Motocross champion Hunter Lawrence headlines the premier class, with his title-winning brother Jett Lawrence and fellow champion Chase Sexton alongside him. Three riders with championship hardware already in their names, all of them starting from zero on the same Saturday.

Haiden Deegan and newly crowned SMX World Champion Jorge Prado round out the list of title hopefuls to follow through the season. With a field this concentrated at the top, the opener gives you an early read on where the summer is headed.

A Natural-Terrain Track With 16 Years Behind It

Fox Raceway is Southern California’s home for outdoor motocross, built up over 16 years with the support of the Pala Band of Mission Indians into one of the sport’s most active venues.

The natural-terrain course gives this event its own character – the track works with the landscape, conditions shift through the day, and the riders have to earn every result. Gates open early for qualifying, and arriving before the afternoon racing starts is worth it.
