King's Cup/Golden Cup
Vintage motocross at Permco AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days presented by Turn 14 Distribution just got a whole lot bigger.
The King’s Cup and Golden Cup are brand new additions to the vintage racing schedule at AMA VMD in 2025, bringing a different flare to the motocross track at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. With competition extending to the air-cooled bikes from the glory days of AMA Hall of Famer Broc Glover’s racing career, these top-flight races will crown a pair of riders as the fastest and daring motocross racers at VMD.
The Golden Cup event features air-cooled, non-linkage and non-disc-braked 125cc two-stroke machinery from the latter 1970s and recalls the mechanical simplicity of those early AMA 125cc National Championship years. The single-moto Golden Cup race will run on Saturday, July 26.
The King’s Cup event will feature air-cooled, two-stroke open-classers from the 1970s and ’80s that celebrate the glory years of 500cc AMA National Championship and 500cc World Championship competition. The single-moto King’s Cup race will run on Sunday, July 27.
*Riders for these one-moto Cup races should be Expert- or Intermediate-classified, and each Cup race will be divided into two divisions — under 40 years of age and over 40.*
