********************
For round seven, the series heads to unchartered territory. For the first time ever, American Flat Track will race in Lexington, Ky. at the Red Mileon Saturday, June 3. Kentucky fans will get to witness a new level of excitement as the best riders in the world mount their fire breathing AFT Twins, along with the future of the sport in the AFT Singles class, duke it out for bragging rights as the first winner on the Red Mile.
The last time the series raced in Kentucky was on June 8, 1991 in Louisville. Scott Parker secured the Half-Mile victory on a Harley-Davidson, on his way to claiming the fourth of his nine Grand National Championships, over eventual seven-time champ Chris Carr.
This new stop on the schedule is familiar, as the circuit is primarily used for a unique style of horse racing called harness racing, where horses pull a two-wheel carriage around the Mile circuit. Now, the track will experience a new-style two wheeled experience with a lot more horsepower.
