Over $25,000 Rider Contingency Available In 2019
The Border Battle XC series has taken a giant step in its role as the Upper Midwest’s premier off-road motorcycle series, expanding to five events in four states in 2019.
A new long-term title partnership with Hoosier OffRoad, distributor of Hoosier Racing Tire’s new MX and IMX dirt bike tire, will bring the series to the very best venues in the Upper Midwest to create rider and spectator-friendly off-road “festivals”. Each round of the Hoosier OffRoad Border Battle XC series will feature GasGas demo rides, vendor displays and Pro/AA autograph signings intended to elevate the profile of cross-country-style racing and attract new participants.
In 2018, BBXC hosted nearly 1,000 entries at three events. The series opener, which drew 474 entries in 2018, will once again take place at ERX Motor Park in Elk River, Minnesota. New venues for 2019 in Wisconsin, Southeastern Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa, feature many of the same amenities as ERX, such as easy access by major highways, ample parking, camping and designated pro pits.
Each round of the 2019 BBXC series will have a minimum $1,765 Pro/AA payout with an additional $1,765 cash contingency payable on race day to those riders using the new Hoosier IMX tire. The top 10 Pro/AA riders competing in all five rounds will be eligible for a $3,500 year-end point fund, paying $1,000 to the winner.
Hoosier OffRoad will also be offering up to $1,000 in cash contingency to the top three finishing riders in all A classes. Amateur riders finishing in the top three in B, C, Youth and Mini classes are eligible for $2,500 in Hoosier Bucks at each round, which can be used like cash at the Roost Factory trackside support trailer. Roost Factory is the authorized dealer for Hoosier Tires and will be providing free Rabaconda tire mounting service to customers. Full details outlining the Hoosier contingency program are available at Hoosier OffRoad Contingency.
