Further momentum for the new Australian Supercross Championship series comes in the confirmation of all major motorcycle manufacturers – Yamaha, Kawasaki, KTM, Honda and Suzuki – as official sponsors.

Tony Hinton from Honda Motorcycles said the range of changes planned for 2012 would help to refresh the sport.

“2012 is going to be an exciting year for the supercross championships in Australia and Honda is pleased to be on board as a major sponsor,” said Hinton.



“The combination of a new promoter, new venues and the return to the old format of Supercross racing will be great for fostering the talent in Australia while new event associations, like with MotoGP at Phillip Island, will introduce new spectators to this dynamic sport.”

Early-bird (seven days or more prior) tickets will start at $15.00 for children (16 and under), $25.00 for adults and $55 for families. Regular ticket prices will remain at an affordable pricing structure of $20 for children, $30 for adults and $70 for families.

Series promoter IEG has also confirmed that the Suzuki RACESAFE medical team will be present at each round of the championship, offering expert medical advice and treatment to all competitors.
