International Entertainment Group (IEG) has confirmed they will provide free freight and free entry to all series entrants attending rounds one and two of the 2013 Australian Supercross Championship in Darwin, NT.

Competitors will now have the opportunity to have their motorcycles and equipment transported via freight to Darwin free of charge. Cargo will be picked up from Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and South Australia depots.

West Australian and Tasmanian competitors will also have the opportunity to have their bikes and equipment transported for free.

An event specific B-Double Transporter will transport motorcycles and equipment to the track in Darwin and return it the week after the event.

IEG Managing Director Yarrive Konsky is excited to offer riders with this level of support and believes this will greatly minimise costs for privateers making the long haul to the Northern Territory.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for privateers, they can fly in and fly home and miss minimal days at work,” said Konsky.

Privateer and factory teams who transport their bikes in their personal race transporters will also be eligible for travel subsidies. The subsidy will be paid in two parts – half upfront with the remainder payable on sign in.

In addition to travel grants IEG are also waving round one and two entry fees for riders who enter the entire six-round championship.

General manager of IEG Phil Harper emphasises how important it is to support riders and teams during tough economic times.

“The riders are the show and we need to support them during trying times,” Harper said. “What we are offering with travel and free entry is just another example of how we are working to build a solid championship.”
