Yuma BMX will hold state qualifying races on Saturday.

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Yuma BMX is hosting state qualifying races on Saturday.

They are expecting over 300 riders to compete. These riders will age from as young as three-years-old to over fifty-years-old.

"8 man gate, so they'll be elbow to elbow and a lot of close racing this weekend," track operator Kyle Oliaz said. "From the start line to the first straight, they hit that about 6 seconds, and the older guys be hitting that fast. [They will be] jumping doubles and manualing and stuff like that. So it'll be exciting, just a fun environment."

Registration is $35 and will open at 9 A.M. Races start at 11:00 a.m.
