British Desert Sled: 1980 and earlier British Motorcycles. This is a combined class where men and women are scored the same. 

Otto’s Junkyard Challenge: New for 2026! Build and race the cheapest pile you can! One lap only. After the race, any of the other riders in the class can claim your bike for $750.
