Monster Energy Supercross heads to MetLife

Pivotal show set for this Saturday

Posted

The 2017 Monster Energy Supercross season has proven to be most exciting in years as the battle for the hotly contested 450SX Class title intensifies. As Round 16 nears the New York area this Saturday, 3-time Champion, Ryan Dungey, and top contender, Eli Tomac, are only separated by 3 points atop the championship standings following adventurous races for each rider. Last Saturday, Tomac charged from 10th to 1st to earn his ninth win of the season and overtake Dungey with a 3-point lead heading into the final 2 rounds. 

Monster Energy Supercross is part aerial excitement and part high-speed chase, with riders launching 225-pound motorcycles upwards of 30 feet in the air at heart-pounding speeds. All-American superstar Dungey continues his gripping battle for the championship with go-getter Eli Tomac, while French sensation Marvin Musquin looms just behind them in his continued ascension to the top. In the ultimate battle of man and machine, only one rider will be rewarded for pushing his body and his bike to the absolute limit, basking in the glory of a championship.

As Monster Energy Supercross continues to set records inside the world’s premiere stadiums, MetLife is set to stage one of the biggest Pit Parties of the year. The Monster Energy Supercross pit party allows fans to expand the racing experience by walking among the riders, mechanics and motorcycles before every race. Meet the champions in the flesh or have a photo op with a lovely Monster Energy Girl. The pre-race preparations in the pits provide insight into the intensity and professionalism that epitomizes Monster Energy Supercross competition.

The Monster Energy Supercross Pit Party happens before the race from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at MetLife Stadium on April 29. Opening ceremonies start at 4:30 p.m. Pit passes are just $15 and available at checkout on Ticketmaster, or at the box office. Fans can also bring an empty Monster Energy can for free entry into the Pit Party - must be accompanied by an event ticket.
