2016 Sturgis Rally. Moto Stampede At The Buffalo Chip.

1motostampedeRoland Sands Design’s Super Hooligan Showdown. Interested in watching unruly Flat Track Racing? Come to see this crazy crew of unruly racers in a series of Super Hooligan events. It will happen Wednesday August 10, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Buffalo Chip Amphitheater. See the dirt fly and experience a serious adrenaline spike as hand-built street bikes go handlebar to handlebar during this Moto Stampede.

The dirt oval race track, built by IV League Flat Track, circles the main grounds of the Buffalo Chip infield between the Wolfman Jack Stage and the Top Shelf. Spectators will be lining the raceway where they unquestionably will feel the grit and dust as competitors back it in sideways through the turns and fight for the lead. To make this wild event even more interesting, one of the races will be completely inappropriate; racers may show up in costumes, crazy helmets or whatever strikes their fancy. Passes at Buffalo Chip or calling 605-347-9000.
