I'm not trying to start any rumors, but here is some info I found online. If there is a minimoto, I wonder if it will be back at South Point?

Monster Energy Supercross
Saturday May 3rd
http://www.supercrossonline.com/Events/2014/05/03/Las_Vegas,_NV/

AmsOil Arenacross
Saturday-Sunday May 3rd-4th (4th is amateur day)
Sout Point Arena
http://www.arenacross.com/Events/2014/05/03/Las_Vegas,_Nevada/

MiniMoto
Date?????? (so far it sounds like it wont happen)
Location??? (possibly Sout Point since the arenacross is there)

I swear I didn't wanta post this. I was told yes it was gona happen. I was told by a solid source. I asked months ago BC I plan a week of vacation around this race. I'm planning on going and setting $ aside already. The people who put this race on need to chime in and say yeah and get it together so guys wanting to go can plan ahead. I can tell u. I raced Vegas last yr and will go back every year I can to race it again. Its def a fun race and u get to meet the guys on here out there. I was told the reason they had not said anything was BC they did not know the Vegas sx dates yet and the race is always the same weekend as the sx. That was months ago. More Texas riders are gona try to make the trip.

That sounds like a janky excuse from them man. Vegas SX is always the same weekend pretty much and tickets usually go on sale right after the previous season ends so there ain't no way they don't know what the dates are yet.
I agree that somebody dealing with this race needs to chime in. If it ain't going to happen then they just need to say so. Feels wrong to be dragged on like this. I also plan vacation around this race so it's hard to sit and just wait.

80% chance it's not happening I spoke to a couple of the main sponsors and no one has heard anything yet. And we are 5 months away so doubt it's happening. If there is enough interest I can put on a race but would have to have lots of interest and pre paid entrees to do so.

^^ That page is old.
It is explaining to you that they were chosen to build the MiniMoto tracks over the years.
He also does the Endurocross tracks for them as well.
Shane told me about a week ago that MiniMoto in Vegas is a no-go for 2014.
I've been holding out hope as well, even though Sano hasn't raced it the last 2 years, I was still hoping it would happen.
I didn't want to be the one to break the news either as I am not an official part of this race, but I doubt if they will put out a PR saying it's cancelled.
I've been to every MiniMoto and we won the first one ever (Tommy Hofmaster, 2004) and won three other titles in 2007.
Doing the PlanetMini's webcast announcing with Nick and Surfrat from the South Point in 2011 may even be my highlight.
I'm going to remember everyone of them and I'll truly miss them too.
Hopefully they will call me and tell me to take this post down because it's not true, but this is what I was told.

Very very sad.. It was my dream to make it to minimoto and this was gonna be the year I finally spent all the money and time on the road to do it. Kicking myself in the arse for not going last year.. Hopefully they pull through. Everybody needs to show their support and actually attend mini events if we want it to keep going. A lot of people are scared away by the competition but I have a blast no matter where in the pack I am and I feel everybody should if you ride a mini bike.

agreed, maybe koby can work his magic like he does and if we all chip in entry fees for koby early maybe he can set something up thats awesome. Defiantly would be a fun discussion as to where to hold a race.

That sux!! I think we all knew at this point it wasnt going to happen but I was still holding onto a shred of hope. Now what? Like many other people I have kept early May open to travel to Las Vegas. Koby now that its official are you going to try and arrange a KOBYMOTOSX 2014 in May? Lets make something happen. Unfortunately for me to put my business on the side and travel I have to set plans two months in advance.

If koby was going to put on a race, what track would work the best?
