Then on Sunday morning after the youth motorcycle race, the FMF KTM Factory Racing Team and KTM-supported pro riders will be at the finish line to award each racer with a finisher medallion as they take the checkered flag. KTM will also have the following Youth models on display under the Trackside Support truck throughout the weekend: a lowered KTM SX E-5, standard KTM SX E-5, KTM 65 SX and KTM 85 SX.

This weekend’s event serves as the seventh round of the 2022 GNCC Series. The John Penton GNCC continues to embrace KTM history as the event is named after the man who originally imported the KTM motorcycle from Austria into the United States. As a salute to Mr. John Penton, KTM will once again honor youth racers throughout the course of the weekend.
