WERA Motorcycle Roadracing Kicks Off 2026 Northeast Season at Grattan Raceway While Bidding Farewell to a Long-Running Engagement

WERA Motorcycle Roadracing is proud to announce the opening of the 2026 Northeast region season with an exciting event at Grattan Raceway in Michigan on May 16–17. Pre-registration is currently open and will remain available through midnight on May 9th. Those who miss the deadline can still register at the track.

As the season gets underway, WERA also marks the end of a significant chapter in its history. Since 2009, WERA has been contracted by the American Motorcyclist Association to manage and operate the roadracing portion of Vintage Motorcycle Days, one of the most celebrated events in the vintage motorcycle community. Over the course of that 15-year engagement, WERA's oversight of the roadracing program transformed the competition into something the grassroots road racing community could be proud of, growing participation dramatically, and in recent years achieving record numbers with over 200 riders competing in the roadrace portion alone.

That growth didn't happen by accident. It was the product of years of operational expertise, dedication to the competitor experience, and an unwavering commitment to keeping the "vintage" in Vintage Motorcycle Days, ensuring that the roadracing program remained true to its roots and accessible to the riders and machines that define the vintage racing community.

The AMA has announced that moving forward, Vintage Motorcycle Days will bring the roadracing operation in-house, with MotoAmerica assisting in timing and scoring, a direction that reflects a different vision for what the event will be. WERA wishes the AMA well and is proud of what was built over the last 15 years.

For WERA moving forward, the mission remains the same: providing roadracers with the most competitive, well-organized, and accessible racing program in the country. That mission continues this season in the Northeast at Grattan Raceway on May 16–17.

WERA Motorcycle Roadracing was founded in 1973 and remains the premier organization for developing talent in the sport of motorcycle roadracing. Our legacy of producing professional riders at the national and world level is second to none. All events are organized and operated by WERA Motorcycle Roadracing and are co-sanctioned by the AMA. Competition is available for riders of all skill levels in the WERA Sportsman Series, as well as the Pro-Am Pirelli/WERA National Challenge Series. WERA also proudly hosts a dedicated Vintage Racing program. For those seeking maximum seat time and real-world experience, the National Endurance Series offers both Ultralightweight and Big Bike Endurance events. WERA Motorcycle Roadracing was voted AMA Track Organizer of the Year in both 2017 and 2024. There is something for everyone with WERA Motorcycle Roadracing!
