2011 AMA Arenacross to Have Live Timing and Scoring

Fans of the series will be glad to hear that the 2011 AMA Arenacross Series season will feature live timing and scoring for the first time ever, Feld Motor Sports announced today. This means that all 14 rounds of the series will have the results and latest news published on the official website of the series.

Initially made popular through Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, the live timing and scoring feature is a revolutionary advancement for the compact excitement of the arena-based series.

"The addition of live timing and scoring on Arenacross.com is a huge step for the sport," Series Director Jayme Dalsing was quoted as saying in a statement for the press. "There is a very dedicated fan base of arenacross fans all over the country and in years past, there was a significant delay to get information on who won. Now, everyone will know what takes place as it happens."

Throughout each of the 19 nights of intense, bar-to-bar action, practice times, heat race lineups and results in addition to the all-important final standings from the main events of both the Arenacross and Arenacross Lites classes will be at fans' fingertips.

The 2011 AMA Arenacross Series season kicks off on January 8 from the BOK Center in Tulsa, Okla. The reigning champion Babbitt's Monster Energy/TiLube Kawasaki team returns to defend the 2010 title while veteran teams like Spinechillers Racing and Triple Effect Kawasaki aim to dethrone them.

Also attending will be Miss Arenacross, 22-year-old Lindsey Marie Scheltema, an active racer herself and whose favorite rider is none other than Ricky Carmichael.
