Phoenix Racing Honda is excited to announce the signing of Jalek Swoll to a multi-year agreement, starting with the upcoming 2027 SuperMotocross season. The experienced 250-class competitor will join the team’s growing roster aboard the Honda CRF250R, competing in the East Region of the Monster Energy AMA 250 Supercross Championship, AMA Pro Motocross Championship, and SuperMotocross World Championship.
Jalek Swoll: “It’s always a good feeling to work with a group of people who genuinely want you there and see the value in what you bring to the table. From our very first conversation, I’ve felt that from David, Gary, and everyone at Phoenix Racing Honda. One of the biggest things for me has been the team’s willingness to take its time and not rush the process, especially after everything I’ve been through with injuries over the past few seasons. I’ve been part of building a program up before, and I really like the people they’ve brought together and the steps they’re taking to prepare for this next chapter. I’m hungry to get back out there, put in the work, and get this Honda up front.”
David Eller, Team Owner, Phoenix Racing Honda: “When we decided to make changes to our lineup for 2027, we knew we wanted to bring in someone who could grow with us over multiple seasons and be part of the progress we’re making as a team. We weren’t just looking for the first proven race winner available. We wanted someone who fit our program, matched our personalities, had something to prove, and could still keep things light and have fun along the way.
“After getting to know Jalek, we felt he checked all those boxes. Across our other racing programs, Phoenix has started winning championships, and we know that kind of success doesn’t happen overnight. It takes a lot of hard work, the right people, and a commitment to building something together. We feel like we’re now in a position to take those same steps with our SMX program, and we’re excited to have Jalek be part of that journey alongside Phoenix Racing and Honda.”
