I Need Some General Information!

[rfleisch]

Whats up everyone,

I'm working on a project right now and I'd really appreciate it if yall could help me out. I am trying to find out how many people (total - not on this forum) do roadracing in the US. Obviously not looking for an exact number, just a good estimate. Anyone have some information on this or might know of a place I could find this out?

Thanks

There must be an American road racing association, try to Google it. I am sure that they would have an official website, and perhaps a forum where you could check that out.

I don't know whether the competition licensing system in the USA is national but your best course of action would be to contact the AMA via the following link (affiliated with the FIM) .

Hopes this helps.

Along with AMA Sport (http://www.amadirectlink.com/amrace/amasports.asp) the amateur racing arm of the AMA that covers many kinds of competition including road racing, WERA (http://www.wera.com/) and CCS (http://www.ccsracing.us/) are the 2 main US nation-wide amateur road racing organizations.

If you could get their number of members it would give you a good estimate I think, WERA says 3000 members on its site
