MotoAmerica Moves NJMP Date for 2027 in Search of Better Weather
2026-10-30
MotoAmerica will return to New Jersey Motorsports Park in 2027, moving the weekend up two weeks to September 10-12 in an effort to avoid the rain that soaked this year's title-deciding season finale.
The series made the reasoning clear on social media, posting on Instagram: "Rain, rain, go away! We're moving New Jersey up two weeks on the schedule for 2027."
The earlier date marks a notable shift from previous years, notably 2026, when the series arrived in Millville in late September and ran headlong into a Nor'easter. Rain defined the weekend, and the Superbike championship was ultimately decided on a wet track.
By moving the event earlier in September, MotoAmerica is targeting warmer, drier conditions and a better chance at dry racing during the closing stages of the season.
The 2027 visit will also bring a new storyline to Millville. Fong and Kelly, who went head-to-head for the 2026 crown, will return to New Jersey as teammates at OrangeCat Racing.
Tickets for the September 10-12, 2027, weekend at New Jersey Motorsports Park are on sale now.
