Destruction Fun at the Amador County Fair

slide22.pngIt’s not just the weather heating up for the upcoming Amador County Fair, July 24-27, the action planned for the Benny Brown Arena is heating up the entertainment line-up. Following the successful addition of the Xtremely Amped extreme motocross show in 2007, Fair management is adding Flat Track Motorcycle racing and a “ya gotta see it to believe it” motorcycle Crash-Up Derby this year. “We know that motorcycle events are extremely popular in Amador and El Dorado Counties, and we know that destruction derbies are extremely popular at the Amador County Fair,” said Fair Manager Troy Bowers. “Watching these racers go flat out with no brakes is almost as crazy as the motocross riders flipping their bikes 20 feet in the air during Xtremely Amped. We think our Fair visitors will love it,” he said. The sell-out Amador County Fair Destruction Derby, put on by the Jackson Rotary, starts at 7:00, but buy your tickets in advance! The motorcycle races and motorcycle “Crash-Up” will be held on Thursday, July 24, starting at 7:00. Xtremely Amped is back on Friday night also at 7:00. All of the grandstand events require an additional ticket purchase in addition to Fair admission. For all ticket prices and packages, visit AmadorCountyFair.com.
