High Point Raceway is a motocross track which is located near Mount Morris, Pennsylvania.^[1] The High Point Pro Motocross National, hosted each June, has been a tradition in the region since the track's addition to the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship in 1977.^[2]

The facility also hosts a round of the Grand National Cross Country Series, the ATV Motocross National Championship and the DC Vet Homecoming each year, as well as local motocross events.

High Point History[edit]

In late 1976, brothers Jack and Carol Holbert reached out to race promoter Dave Coombs with the hopes of building a motocross track on their family farm. Coombs would break ground on the track and undergo later renovations after the Maico Factory Racing team visited the facility and gave their feedback. From there, their basic layout has remained the same over the years with only changes coming within the existing facility. The track has hosted a round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship each year since opening in 1977. Additionally, the facility hosted the first-ever AMA National Hare Scramble in 1979 and would see a round of the Grand National Cross Country Series from 1987 until 2002. In 2018, GNCC Racing returned to High Point Raceway as a section of the Mason-Dixon GNCC based out of the adjoining Mathews Farm property.

The name High Point originated from a planned sponsorship with John Penton's Hi Point Products. The sponsorship fell through before finalization, even though signs were already made. The additional letters were added and the High Point Raceway name has remained ever since.

Past Pro Motocross Winners[edit]

Since the inaugural event in 1977, the High Point National has been visited by some of the world's top motocross racers and many have logged class wins at the event.
