Privateer Support Program
The Fox Australian Supercross Championship is excited to unveil our revamped Privateer Support Program, proudly backed by MXstore. This initiative is designed to provide stronger support, increased visibility, and greater financial rewards to our dedicated privateer riders.
Crafted with invaluable feedback from riders and industry leaders, this program aligns with our strategic goal of “getting more riders in gates,” ensuring the sustainable growth of Supercross in Australia. We recognize the challenges you face in pursuing your dreams independently, and we’re here to help.
Privateers are the backbone of our sport, and this program is a significant step towards better acknowledging and supporting those who aspire to reach professional heights or simply race for the love of Supercross.
Our comprehensive handbook covers every aspect of the program, including details on privateer payouts, prize money incentives, new opt-in procedures, and a clear definition of what it means to be a privateer, along with other key initiatives designed to add value to your racing journey.
We extend our sincere thanks to MXstore for their unwavering support of this program and their continued commitment to advancing Supercross in Australia, from grassroots efforts to the professional level.
During all five rounds of the championship across SX1 & SX2 categories, MXStore will award $1,000 to the top three performing privateers in each class. This will be broken down by $500 for the first-place privateer, $350 for the second-place privateer and $150 for the third-place privateer. This initiative is designed to support and honour the commitment and hard work of privateer riders, who bring an additional thrill to the events.
Both SX1 and SX2 categories will again be rewarded down to the 20th position in the main event.
This sustained commitment to our increased prize money pool reflects our ongoing appreciation for the dedication and effort all riders invest in the Australian Supercross Championship.
The 2024 Australian Supercross Championship includes a special Privateer Championship, designed to honour the outstanding achievements of privateer riders in the SX1 and SX2 categories. Throughout the season, the performances of these riders will be tracked, and the highest-placed privateer in each category will be awarded the Privateer Championship Trophy at the end of the season.
Our “Rider Profile” initiative, designed to give spectators a deeper insight into who the privateers are, both as riders and individuals.
Privateers will also be showcased on our Website Rider Profile page on our website and official AusSupercross social media platforms, further emphasizing your role in the series.
We are thrilled to continue supporting our talented privateer riders in the 2024 Australian Supercross by providing a Dropbox link containing high-quality images after each round, offering riders convenient access to download and share images on their own channels for enhanced brand recognition and proper credit.
As a valued partner of the Australian Supercross Championship, Fox Racing Australia is pleased to continue providing all privateer riders with a unique discount code for use on www.foxracing.com.au. This exclusive code will grant you 20% off a wide range of premium racewear and apparel.
