The historic, natural terrain Road Atlanta road course has a rich history in road racing and motorcycle racing with many of the legendary names posting victories at this unique 2.55-mile undulating circuit through the Georgia pines.

M1 Powersports began promoting the Big Kahuna events at Road Atlanta as part of the 1998 AMA Pro Road Racing season and the series returns to the exhilirating circuit in the hills of Braselton, Ga. for the Big Kahuna Atlanta. The track is located just 35 miles outside of Atlanta and has a rich history with AMA Pro Road Racing dating to back to Eddie Lawson’s 1980 AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike victory. The series last raced at the facility in 2010, where fans witnessed Blake Young sweep the National Guard SuperBike doubleheader weekend in dramatic fashion, while Martin Cardenas swept the Daytona SportBike doubleheader and J.D. Beach kept with the pattern by claiming both of the weekend’s SuperSport race wins.
