What to expect this weekend at the Nitro World Games

The top tier of drivers and riders from rally, freestyle motocross and flat track racing convene once again in Utah to determine “who’s the best.”

“We don’t care where you came from or what you have accomplished in the past, if you have what it takes to go big and win, we want you here,” said Travis Pastrana.

The Nitro World Games is the brainchild of Pastrana’s desire to push competition forward in a safe but insanely progressive environment where the biggest tricks and world records are broken.

Live from Utah on Facebook Saturday August 17, you can tune in for Nitro Rallycross, FMX Best Trick, FMX Quarterpipe and new this year Nitro World Games has added the high intensity of Super Hooligan Flat Track racing.

Born from the days when racers rode their bikes to the track, competed, and then rode them back home, Hooligan racing features twin multi-cylinder motors only. Bikes are 750cc and above with 19” wheels and tires, and they must have a stock frame. High-powered motorcycles sliding sideways and banging bars is what flat track is all about and while the racing always gets close and personal, the bikes still reach speeds of close to 100MPH.
