AMA Texas State Championship Final

The 2026 AMA Texas State Championship Final crowns the Texas #1 plate October 23-25 at Oak Hill MX in Alvord, Texas. Double points close out the six round chase after the regional rounds and the Rafter S Shootout, settling every class title. As the first Texas State Championship run as an AMA Featured Series, the Final delivers factory contingencies, championship trophies and the coveted AMA Featured Series Texas #1 plate. Friday move in opens at 5 PM, with practice Saturday morning and racing through Sunday. At Oak Hill the weekend runs like this: gates open Friday, October 23 from 3 to 10 PM for move-in. Saturday gates open at 6 AM, on-site registration at 6:30, and AMA-sanctioned practice runs 8 AM to noon in three rounds of 10-minute sessions (Big Bike A/B, all 85cc, Big Bike C/D, all 65cc, Vet 30+ and Women, 50cc Jr and Sr, Supermini and Schoolboy, then 51cc Air Cooled and Micro E). The riders meeting is at noon at the score tower, and racing starts at 1 PM with every class combined into a single race order, all first motos first. Sunday gates open at 6, sight laps go at 8, and racing picks up immediately with any first motos not finished Saturday. Oak Hill pricing for the final: practice $30 per rider, race entry $50 per class ($60 Pro), gate $15 per person per day with no one-day passes sold (4 and under free for non-racers), dry camping $25 a night, RV hookups $60 a night and pit vehicles $20. Online registration is open for race entries, practice and RV spots, so lock in a hookup early. Championship points are awarded on a per-moto basis, with double points at both the Rafter S Shootout and the State Championship Final. Points earned in one region do not transfer to another, so riders must compete within their selected region to accumulate points toward the state title. Series rules: points are scored on a 25-point scale down to one point for 20th, awarded per moto at every round, with double points at the Shootout and the State Championship Final. Points do not transfer between the North, Central and South regions. The State Championship Final is open to everyone whether or not they raced a regional round, but riders who skip the regionals start the final on zero points. The season decides the official AMA Texas State Championship number one plate. Practice runs Saturday morning at the regular rounds.
