10th Annual FMF Cody Gragg Memorial 2-Stroke Race

Forty 2-strokes, one moto, one gate. The 10th Annual FMF Cody Gragg Memorial 2-Stroke Race runs Sunday, October 11, 2026 at Muddy Creek Raceway in Blountville, Tennessee, at about 12:30 PM during the intermission of the Stowers CAT Top Gun Showdown. It is open to A class, Pro-Am and Pro riders on two-strokes, a throwback to when every motocross bike smoked, and the 40-rider field is set by a required practice and qualifying race on Saturday, with Sunday morning practice before the single moto. The race remembers Cody Gragg, part of the Victory Sports family since he raced 50s in 2000, and his dad Chris, who were lost together. Lisa Gragg, Cody's mother, returns as Grand Marshal. Victory Sports seeds the purse with $7,000 in memory of Cody and Chris, then adds every donation and 100 percent of rider entries, and the winner takes home a commemorative award. Last year the purse passed $27,000 with $7,000 to win and a $1,298 holeshot. Entry is $60, all of it back into the purse, signed up at the race; a full 40-rider gate adds another $2,400. Past winners: Tyler Stepek (2017), Ezra Hastings (2018), Luke Neese (2019), Kyle Bitterman (2020, 2021 and 2024), Matt Burkeen (2022, holeshot and win), Preston Kilroy (2023) and Marshal Weltin (2025). Businesses, racers and race families can add to the purse by credit card through Victory Sports at 423-323-5497; the purse total and donor list are updated as it grows on victory-sports.com and the Victory Sports Racing Facebook and Instagram pages.
