The Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals will kick off the 2020 Pro Stock Motorcycle season and with it the continuation of the battle for spots in the eight-bike Mickey Thompson Tires Pro Bike Battle event.

Riders earn points for the Mickey Thompson Tires Pro Bike Battle during qualifying at NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series events. The eight riders accumulating the most qualifying points leading up to the NHRA Sonoma Nationals earn a berth in the Mickey Thompson Tires Pro Bike Battle, held annually at the NHRA Sonoma Nationals. The winner of the event earns a cool $25,000 payday.

Eddie Krawiec is the current points leader in the Battle standings with 2,750, just ahead of Matt Smith at 2,665. Behind them are Hector Arana Jr. (2620), Andrew Hines (2520), Angelle Sampey (2085), Hector Arana Sr. (1990), Angie Smith (1905) and Ryan Oehler (1875).

Points will be accumulated through the Dodge Mile-High NHRA Nationals Presented By Pennzoil in Denver to set the field.
