No refunds will be issued for cancelations. Registrations may not be sold or transferred to another rider.

ACTIVE AMA MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED

The TKO is an AMA Grand National event for Amateurs. Therefore, during registration, you will be asked for your AMA number which needs to be current/active. It’s required for the TKO online registration as no AMA day-passes will be available on-site at the event.

PAYMENT

To complete your registration, you will be required to click on the Pay Now with PayPal or Credit Card button on the registration form. Please click this button only ONCE!  This will redirect you to PayPal where you can complete your transaction. If you already have a PayPal account and want to use your PayPal balance, or a card or bank account linked to your PayPal account, we suggest you login to your PayPal account prior to registration opening to make your checkout smoother.

If you do not have a PayPal account, you can create a free account at PayPal.com and link your credit card ahead of time; this will also make your checkout much smoother.

If you do not have a PayPal account and do not want to create one, that’s okay too. Just click the Pay with PayPal or Credit Card button and you’ll be sent to PayPal to enter your information at the time of checkout. This does not affect your place in line. Once you click the Pay with PayPal or Credit Card button on the registration site, your spot is secured while you finish checking out.

Once you’ve paid, either with your PayPal balance or a credit card on the PayPal website, you’ll receive a confirmation email from TKO confirming your purchase and spot in the race. Please check your spam or junk mail folder before reaching out to us.

2018 Kenda Tennessee Knockout Extreme Enduro schedule confirmed; Amateur registration opens November 30

The Trials Training Center in Sequatchie, Tennessee will host the eighth annual Kenda Tennessee Knockout on the weekend of August 18-19, 2018. The TKO is recognized as one of the premier off-road motorcycle races in the United States, attracting some of the best racers from around the world.

Cody Webb, arguably the best American Extreme Enduro racer, has been challenged by many of the best US and international riders and has still managed to take the TKO title five years in a row.

In 2017, the UK’s Graham Jarvis challenged Webb but had to settle for second.

In 2016, South Africa’s Wade Young put up a good fight but he too finished second behind Webb. In 2015, it was the UK’s Jonny Walker that pushed Webb extremely hard but ultimately followed Webb to the finish. Spain’s Mario Roman, and top American’s like Taylor Robert and Kyle Redmond had joined Webb on the podium but have not been able to take him down.

Webb will be back on his FMF KTM aiming for his sixth straight TKO win in 2018. Any rider that finished in the top 25 on Sunday at the 2017 TKO will be qualified directly into the 2018 TKO Sunday program. In addition, the top off-road riders from other major US and International racing series and events will be invited directly into the Sunday program.

The Sunday format will again feature a multi-round Knockout format that is challenging for the riders and very spectator friendly. The expert riders will be competing for a $10,000 purse.

Saturday will be open to the first 250 amateur entries. The top 30 finishers from Saturday will earn a spot in Sunday’s expert program.

Amateur registration opens at 6:00 pm CST on Thursday, November 30, 2017. There are just 250 spots available and entries sold out in just a couple of hours for the 2017 event so please plan to get your entry in as soon as it opens. The registration link will be available here on the TKO website.
