I know what it’s like to show up at a track and wonder if you’re in the right place.
You want real competition. You want safety that doesn’t feel like an afterthought. And you want to be around people who actually get why you do this.
That’s why fmbmotoracing exists.
We built this organization because too many riders were stuck choosing between serious competition and serious safety. You shouldn’t have to pick one over the other.
This guide walks you through everything we offer. Our racing philosophy. Our safety standards. How to get on the track whether you’re running your first session or your hundredth race.
We’ve created a community where new riders can learn without getting crushed and experienced racers can push themselves without cutting corners on safety.
If you’re here, you’re probably asking yourself if this is the right fit. Maybe you’ve been burned by organizations that talk a big game but don’t deliver.
Read through this page. You’ll see exactly what we stand for and how we operate.
No fluff about passion and dreams. Just what we do and how you can be part of it.
Our Mission: More Than Just a Race
I didn’t start fmbmotoracing to run another cookie-cutter racing series.
We have enough of those already.
What we needed was something real. A place where competition actually means something and safety isn’t just a checkbox on some form.
Here’s what I believe. Racing is about three things:
- Fierce competition that pushes you
- Safety standards you can trust with your life
- A community that gets why you do this
Everything else is just noise.
The whole experience matters. Not just race day. I’m talking about rider development programs that actually teach you something. Event weekends where you want to stick around after the last lap. The kind of atmosphere where a first-timer feels welcome and a seasoned pro feels challenged.
That’s the difference.
Some people think racing should stay exclusive. Keep it for the elite riders with factory bikes and big budgets.
I disagree.
We run events for everyone. Track days for riders who are still figuring out their braking points. Regional series for weekend warriors. Championship races for professionals chasing podiums.
You pick your level. We’ll make sure it’s worth your time.
Because at the end of the day, we’re all here for the same reason. The sound of an engine. The feel of a perfect corner. The rush of going wheel to wheel with someone who wants it just as bad as you do.
That’s what this is about.
The Thrill of Competition: Our Racing Series Explained
You want to race.
Not just track days. Not just casual laps with your buddies. Real competition.
But where do you start? And what happens when you get good enough that the beginner class feels too easy?
I built fmbmotoracing motorbike competition from formotorbikes to answer exactly that.
Championship Classes That Match Your Skill
We run four main categories.
Superbike 1000 is where the big bikes play. We’re talking 1000cc machines with full race prep. This is the top tier.
Supersport 600 sits right below. You’ll ride 600cc sportbikes that are lighter and a bit more forgiving than the liter bikes. Still plenty fast.
Lightweight Twins is for smaller displacement machines. Think 650cc twins and below. Don’t let the name fool you (these bikes are scrappy and the racing gets tight).
Then there’s the Novice Cup. This is where most riders begin their racing journey.
Your Path Forward
Here’s what happens when you start winning.
You enter Novice Cup. You learn racecraft. You get comfortable with competition. Once you’ve proven yourself and met the performance benchmarks, you move up.
Maybe you go to Lightweight Twins. Maybe Supersport 600. It depends on what you ride and how fast you improve.
The system isn’t arbitrary. Your lap times and race results tell us when you’re ready. No politics. No guessing.
What You’re Racing For
We use a standard points system. Finish position determines points. Consistency across the season wins championships.
Prizes? Yes. But here’s what really matters.
An FMB title means something. It tells other racers and teams that you can perform under pressure. That you didn’t just get lucky once.
Where We Race
We partner with premier circuits. The kind of tracks you’ve watched on TV.
You’ll get seat time on legendary tarmac. The same corners the pros take. The same elevation changes and technical sections.
What about bike prep? You’re probably wondering what modifications are legal in each class. We publish detailed technical regulations for every category. You’ll know exactly what you can change before you spend a dime.
And if you outgrow our series? That’s the goal. We’ve had riders move on to national and international competition. Your FMB results become part of your racing resume.
Hone Your Skills: Track Days and Rider Development
You want to get faster.
I see it every time someone shows up to their first track day. They’ve been riding the street for years and they’re ready to really open it up.
But here’s what most people don’t realize.
Track days aren’t just about going fast. They’re about learning how to ride properly without worrying about gravel, traffic, or that guy texting in the left lane.
Some riders say you don’t need track time to be good on the street. They argue that street skills and track skills are completely different. And sure, you won’t find many decreasing radius turns at 140 mph on your morning commute.
But that misses the point entirely.
The skills you build at the track translate everywhere. Smooth throttle control. Proper body position. Reading grip levels. These things matter whether you’re carving canyons or just trying not to lowside in the rain.
What is an FMB Track Day?
It’s simple. A track day is a non-competitive event where you focus on improving your riding in a controlled environment.
No cops. No oncoming traffic. No surprises.
Just you, the bike, and clean pavement. (Well, and about 50 other riders who are there for the same reason.)
We run these at fmbmotoracing because I got tired of watching talented riders plateau. They’d hit a certain skill level on the street and just stay there forever.
How We Group Riders
We split everyone into three groups based on pace and experience.
NOVICE riders are new to the track. Maybe you’ve done one or two days before. Maybe this is your first time off the street entirely. You’ll run at a controlled pace with others who are still learning the basics.
INTERMEDIATE riders know the fundamentals. You’re working on consistency and starting to push a bit harder. This group moves faster but still leaves room for mistakes.
ADVANCED riders are comfortable at speed. You know your lines and you’re chasing lap times. This is where things get serious.
The group system keeps everyone safe. You’re never stuck behind someone going half your pace or getting blown by riders who are way beyond your level.
Professional Coaching That Actually Helps
We bring in professional instructors who’ve raced at high levels.
They’ll watch you on track and give you specific feedback. Not vague stuff like “go faster” but actual technique fixes. Where you’re looking. How you’re using the throttle. Whether your body position is costing you time.
You can book one-on-one sessions or join group coaching between sessions. Both work. It depends on how you learn best.
From Track Day to Race Day
Here’s the thing about racing.
It looks intimidating from the outside. But once you’ve done a few track days? You realize you’re already doing 90% of what racers do.
Our track days give you the comfort level you need before entering your first race. You’ll know the flags. You’ll understand passing etiquette. You’ll have your lines dialed in.
When you finally grid up for that first race, it won’t feel like jumping into the deep end.
It’ll feel like just another session. Except this time, there’s a trophy waiting.
Join the Action: A Guide for Racers and Spectators
You’ve watched the races online.
Maybe you’ve even stood trackside at a local event. And now you’re wondering if you should actually get involved.
Some people will tell you that motorcycle racing is too expensive to start. Too complicated. Too risky for beginners or too boring for casual fans who just want a fun weekend.
I hear this all the time.
But here’s what those people don’t understand. Getting started doesn’t mean you need a factory bike and a semi truck. And being a spectator doesn’t mean standing behind a fence half a mile from the action.
Let me break down how this actually works.
For Aspiring Racers
If you want to race, you need three things sorted before you show up.
First, your bike. Safety wire all the critical bolts. Add containment for fluids (because nobody wants oil on the racing line). Your machine doesn’t need to be perfect, but it needs to be safe.
Second, your gear. Full leathers, a certified helmet, proper boots and gloves. No exceptions here.
Third, your paperwork. Get your race license through the sanctioning body and complete registration for your first event.
That’s it. You don’t need years of preparation.
The Rulebook Matters
Download the official rulebook before you do anything else. I know reading rules sounds about as fun as watching paint dry, but this document tells you exactly what’s allowed and what’ll get you sent home.
Most rookie mistakes happen because someone skipped this step.
For the Fans
Now, if you’d rather watch than race, you’re in for a treat.
The paddock is open. You can walk right up to the bikes and talk to the racers between sessions. You won’t find that at most professional motorsports events (they keep you locked behind VIP barriers unless you pay extra).
Viewing spots are spread around the track. You can move freely and catch different corners throughout the day.
And yes, bring the family. I’ve seen kids who can barely walk get excited watching bikes fly past.
Check the fmbmotoracing event calendar for upcoming dates. Tickets are available online, and most events won’t break your budget.
You don’t need to commit to a full season. Just show up once and see if it clicks.
