Could someone explain the difference between all these races at grands?

Race of Champions?

NAG 5?

Logan,
The ROC is the Race of Champions. You have to place in the top of your state in the state championship points to qualify. There are a lot of odd quirks in this race. Like you get to race the age and class that you were at your state final. So if you were 13I at your state finals, but aged up and classed up to 14X you can choose to race 13I for a ROC plate. Also, USABMX tied in the Presidents Cup from the NBL and made the ROC a state versus state race as well with the winning state gettint the Presidents Cup.

I don't know as much about the Nag 5 challenge, but I know the Pros race their semis and finals during this part of the event. After looking at the event flyer, it looks like the top 5 NAG riders in 15 and older girls and 15 and older boys race to see is the fastest girl and boy amatuer regardless of age.

Only round one of Grands qualifiers ran today. 678 motos took 6 hours. We have to do all of second round tomorrow plus the 1/8ths and 1/4s and 1/2s and mains tomorrow. The gate is dropping at a rapid pace.

The NAG 5 Challenge, Pro challenge, put bikes, side hacks and strider mains tonight starting at 6 pm.

NAG 5 challenge: all amateurs who are top 5 in their classes, 15x and over (no cruisers) boys, and girls 15 and over. Boys race each other. Girls race each other. It's a challenge to see who Tha fastest amateurs in the country are.

Those who made it out today (to the best of our collective knowledge):
Robby, both bikes.
Danny both bikes.
Derek cruiser.
Brent cruiser.
Dallas 20".
Jack 20 and open.
Sophia both bikes.
Alex Clift both bikes.
Chris Clift 20".
Hunter both bikes.
Homer on 20".
Kizerian on 20"
Nick U on 20.
Jonas on cruiser.
Zack Haymond on 20.

That's what I know for now.
