The MotoAmerica Course Marshal Training Day at Virginia International Raceway 2026 is scheduled for: 

Thursday, 13-Aug, 2026, from 9:00 AM until 4:00 PM.

All attendees are eligible for pay at the standard MotoAmerica Course Marshal pay rate of USD 140/day. Also, this training day will satisfy the onsite and in person training requirement for the FIMNA Course Marshal License.

We hope and expect that everyone will register for our MotoAmercica event at Virginia International Raceway the following weekend (Fri-Sun, 31-Jul - 2-Aug, 2026). We will issue the usual registration packets with hard-card credential for all those training day attendees that register for our race meeting beginning Thursday morning at 8:00 AM local time (PDT). If you intend to arrive Wednesday afternoon to camp, then the track will issue a wristband credential for Wednesday and Thursday.

The training day will be split into two parts - 1/2 day classroom, and 1/2 day rider and bike recovery with radio communications and the use of fabric flags for signaling. 

Clothing:

• Please dress comfortably for the event. The only requirement is closed toe shoes. We recommend wearing leather gloves, long pants, and sun protection. 
• Rain Gear: We will conduct the outdoor half of the training in/near a gravel trap "rain or shine", so please bring rain gear!

Lunch will be provided by Ridge Motorsports Park.
