Ellenton, Fla., (August 13, 2019) – The Supercross Futures AMA National Championship is set to take place amidst an All-Star weekend at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas Oct. 20 – 21 as 26 classes will be contested throughout the weekend beginning with the 250 Futures and Supermini Futures classes taking place on Saturday night as part of the Monster Energy Cup.

The 250 Futures and Supermini Futures classes feature the sports most talented up and coming athletes and the Monster Energy Cup will provide the perfect backdrop as the elite of the amateur ranks join their Supercross heroes and compete on the same track in front of a capacity crowd inside Sam Boyd Stadium.

“You put so much work into it,” explains Team Green Kawasaki’s Ryder DiFrancesco. “Right now, my biggest goal and biggest dream is to race Supercross.”

The top ten finishers in the 250 Futures class will automatically receive their Supercross license allowing these competitors to potentially line up in Anaheim on January 4 when the 2020 season opens.

“Supercross Futures is the only AMA National Championship that takes center stage in some of the world’s most iconic sporting venues,” said Bill Heras, Director of Operations – Supercross Futures, Feld Entertainment, Inc. “It’s amazing to think that ten amateur racers that start the 250 Futures race will leave here as professional Supercross athletes. They have put in the work and will reap the rewards. This is going to be an incredible weekend of intense, competitive racing.”

Supercross Futures Championship racing will pick back up on Monday, Oct. 21 as 24 additional classes will be contested throughout the day beginning with the Supermini 1 (12-15) class and ending with the 65cc (7-9) class. Each class will follow a two-moto racing format where each moto will be five minutes plus one lap in length, except for the 50cc class which will clock four minutes plus one lap motos.
