MXP To Raise Money for Three Riders to Race Round 11 of AMA Pro Motocross Series
MXP is taking the lead in developing an innovative approach to give our elite CMRC Pro riders the opportunity to further develop their talents against top riders in the world. The challenges behind the scenes and the cost are always a problem for the teams, the industry and the fans in order to help fund our riders and get them to important international events for many young Canadians to gain the experience. MXP has come up with the idea of raising money for three riders to race Round 11 of the AMA Pro Motocross Series at Steel City, Pennsylvania on September 1st, 2012.
“Last year it was great to see Tyler Medaglia, Kaven Benoit and Colton Facciotti compete at the final two rounds of the AMA series”, states MXP Owner Charles Stancer. “The response from fans and industry was so positive that we thought MXP could step up and help others try to do the same.”
Colton Facciotti did so well that he earned a spot on a US based factory level team for the final two rounds.
“So many more Canadians tuned into the final two rounds because of the amazing performance by Colton Facciotti”, says MXP Editor Ryan Gauld. “He earned a great ride and showed that Canada has riders capable of being on the gate with the best riders in the world. So why not help others try to do the same? Instead of trying to raise a huge amount of money to get a team to MXDN, we think the support from MXP and the industry would be better suited helping our top riders get their feet wet a little closer to home.”
This weekend is the Toronto Motorcycle Show at the Toronto International Center where we will start to raise money for this great opportunity. MXP will begin by donating a dollar from every subscription or product sold. “MXP will present a minimum of $500 for each of the riders that are selected”, explains Ryan Gauld. “Additionally, MXP will publish a minimum of six pages in our 5th issue of 2012, plus web content on www.mxpmag.com”.
MXP will start a poll on mxpmag.com once the 2012 Monster Energy Motocross Nationals get underway in 2012 to see who the fans would like to see receive this money. The decision of who goes will be picked by July 31st.
