Press Conference Day at new Hybrid Supercross / Motocross event - The Monster Energy Cup

Thursday, was the opening press conference at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas. It's the 'start' of activities of the first ever Monster Energy Cup - a brand new type of motorcycle racing event combining Supercross and Motocross on one track.

The press conference was started and hosted by a former Supercross and Motocross Champion, Jeff Emig. Jeff welcomed all in attendance, and explained that this event has been 12 months in planning between Feld Motor sports and Monster Energy beverage company. It's a special 'hybrid' track, combining Supercross and MX style sections. The track was primarily designed by two people very well known in Supercross and Motocross - 8 time AMA National Motocross and Supercross Champion Jeremy McGrath (best ever in Supercross, 7 time champion, 72 main event wins), and 15 time AMA National MX and Supercross Champion Ricky Carmichael (most wins ever in combined AMA Motocross and Supercross).
