What to expect
Old bikes, fresh dirt. Midwest Vintage MX (MWVMX) brings its AMA-chartered vintage motocross series to Muddy Waters MX in Port Byron, Illinois for a two-day race weekend on October 17 and 18, 2026. Gates open Friday, October 16 at 4 PM for camping, and both race days run the riders meeting at 8:45 AM with practice at 9 and racing to follow.
Gate is $15 per person per day and camping is $25 per unit for the weekend. Class entry fees follow the series schedule on midwestvintagemx.com, and every rider needs a current AMA card; minors need an annual AMA minor release on file or both parents at sign-up, no exceptions. Muddy Waters is a sand and loam track on the Mississippi north of the Quad Cities.
