It looks as though there will be a supermoto and sportsman class at saratoga speedway and here is some info from last weeks meeting.

Dates confirmed (no conflicting dates w/ Victoria Supermoto). All Saturday’s at 5pm:
May 25, June 8, June 22, July 13, July 27, and Aug 24.
Due to dwindling number of entries, a sport bikes class is no longer scheduled.
Dirt section will be designed inside hairpin area, using existing monster truck jump.
Possible platform jump on front straight with optional chicane (like Vic SM at Western).
Chicanes will be added in hairpin entry and exit to make it a more technical section.
Hay bales to be added to ditch area on exit of hairpin and 4 sections of motorcycle Air Fence will be used in Dogleg impact area.
Class structure will be designed, and classes run during race will be determined by number of entries of each class. Under 450cc, over 450cc and Sportsman are probable classes. Possibly Expert and Amateur classes if warranted.
