MORGANTOWN,
W.Va. (March
21, 2024) – MX Sports
Pro Racing, Inc., has
announced the return of
integral partner and
e-commerce giant
MotoSport.com, which
will continue its role
as the “Official Online
Retailer” of the 2024
Pro Motocross
Championship,
sanctioned by AMA Pro
Racing. The online
powersports store will
reach a milestone in its
partnership this summer
with a decade of
multifaceted support of
the series, which will
be highlighted by its
title sponsorship of the
longest-running
professional motorsports
event in the Pacific
Northwest, the
MotoSport.com
Washougal National
Presented by Peterson
CAT on July 20,
which will serve as
Round 8 of the Pro
Motocross Championship
and Round 25 of the
SuperMotocross World
Championship Series.
The event will once
again receive presenting
sponsorship from
Peterson CAT.
“I have been a loyal
advocate and supporter
of MotoSport for
decades. I don’t know of
many companies that
carry such a significant
investment into every
level of the sport, from
grassroots racers to
elite pros, which serves
as a representation of
the passion we all have
for motocross here in
the Pacific Northwest,”
said Ryan Huffman, Owner
of Washougal MX Park and
Organizer of the
Washougal National. “Our
National carries a rich
legacy that now spans
well over 40 years and
there isn’t a better
partner to have as our
title sponsor than
MotoSport, who are as
synonymous with PNW moto
as we are.”

The brand’s title
support of the sought
after
MotoSport.com Holeshot
will remain the
cornerstone of its
long-standing
partnership and dates
back to the 2014 season.
The gate drop is one of
the most compelling and
important moments of
each moto and there’s
nothing in motorsports
quite like the feeling
of watching 40 riders
converge into the first
turn to see who emerges
with the lead and the
huge advantage that
comes with it to start a
race.

Rounding out MotoSport’s
dynamic sponsorship is
its return as title
sponsor of
Race Day Live Presented
by MotoSport.com,
the official
pre-race show of the Pro
Motocross Championship.
The popular one-hour
livestream kicks off
Peacock’s coverage of
each National with a
showcase of the final
timed qualifying
sessions in addition to
exclusive interviews,
analysis, and news from
morning preparations for
the pair of 450 Class
and 250 Class motos that
will ultimately decide
the outcome of each
respective championship.
“At our core, MotoSport
is a company driven by
the passion of motocross
enthusiasts who live and
breathe the sport, from
former pros to weekend
warriors. That passion
not only motivates us to
provide consumers with
the best products
possible, it also allows
us to engage with every
facet of the motocross
community that we
ourselves are members
of,” said John St.
Juliana, Vice President
and General Manager of
MotoSport.com. “The Pro
Motocross Championship
has served as an ideal
platform to showcase our
brand and stay connected
to our audience. We’re
fortunate to have one of
the most dynamic
partnerships in the
sport and feel a
tremendous sense of
pride in sponsoring the
Washougal National,
which is the Super Bowl
for any motocrosser in
the Pacific Northwest
and epitomizes our own
fandom for the sport.”
