MotoAmerica, North America’s premier motorcycle road racing series, is proud to announce that Ohvale USA has joined the growing list of organizations hosting qualifiers for the 2026 Mission Mini Cup National Final. 

The addition of Ohvale USA further strengthens MotoAmerica’s nationwide grassroots development program, giving riders in Southern California three opportunities to earn bonus points and prepare for the biggest Mission Mini Cup event of the season.

”We appreciate Ohvale USA stepping up to host these three MotoAmerica Mission Mini Cup qualifiers,” said Chuck Aksland, COO of MotoAmerica. “‘The Ohvale USA team continues to show their commitment to the future of our sport by providing these three qualifying opportunities on the West Coast. It’s great to see a former champion like John Hopkins and a company like Ohvale USA working together in an effort to grow our sport and give these racers a path to the National Final.”

The Mission Mini Cup program features riders aged six to 16 in the following classes:

• Stock 50 (ages 6-8)
• Stock 110 (ages 8-12)
• GP 110 (ages 10-14)
• GP 160 (10-14)
• GP 190 (12-16)

The Mission Mini Cup classes serve as the official youth development ladder of MotoAmerica and are a proving ground for the sport’s next generation of professional talent.

“Ohvale USA is proud to host these three qualifiers at Apex Motorsports Park,” said Hopkins, who is Managing Director of Ohvale USA. “We understand how important it is to give young racers an opportunity to build their racing skills. As a motorcycle racer who grew up in Southern California myself, I feel a special connection to providing our local riders a pathway to the Mission Mini Cup National Final this summer.”

The Ohvale USA-hosted Mission Mini Cup qualifiers are scheduled for April 11, May 16, and May 30 at Apex Motorsports Park in Perris, California.

A one-time, 10-point bonus is awarded to participants in any of the 2026 Mission Mini Cup qualifiers regardless of the number of events entered and will be used to calculate the final finishing order for the Mission Mini Cup National Final, to be held at Road America’s Briggs & Stratton Motorplex on August 7-9.

Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha again are providing manufacturer contingency to support the Stock 50 and Stock 110 classes, further enhancing the offering for riders throughout the 2026 season.
