Do you and your friends want to race motorcycles? Washington Motorcycle Road Racing Association (WMRRA) has an entire racing class and support staff dedicated to helping to get riders onto the race track for their very first timed racing event with no previous experience required. Our goal is to find interested riders and train them the basics of motorcycle race-craft and help facilitate their assimilation into the club racing world we have here in the pacific northwest.
To start racing with WMRRA new riders will have to complete 2 components of Novice training to be eligible to enter into their first novice race. Those 2 components are the New Racer School (NRS) “In class portion” and the NRS “On track portion”.
