Rocky Mountain Announces SX Team

Friday, November 30, 2012 | 10:00 AM

Rocky Mountain ATV/MC, renowned leader in providing off-road enthusiasts with the largest selection of off-road gear at the lowest prices, today announced their sponsorship of the first ever Rocky Mountain ATV/MC  Supercross team.  As an avid supporter of motorsports, Rocky Mountain ATV/MC is proud to support the 2013 AMA Supercross races and bring more exposure to the off-road industry by sponsoring the Rocky Mountain ATV/MC Supercross team which will compete in 17 races across the United States and Canada.

Rocky Mountain ATV/MC will have representation in both the Supercross class and Lites class by sponsoring up-and-coming privateer riders Bracken Hall and Landen Powell.  Landen Powell will race in the Supercross class and Bracken Hall will compete in the West Coast Lites class.  Both Hall and Powell have proven themselves as fierce competitors in Supercross, having both the brazenness of new contenders and skill of seasoned riders.

A custom built racing semi will house the team as they travel to all 17 rounds in the West and East Coast. Several industry leading brands have stepped in to help the team including Fly apparel, Bell helmets, and FMF exhausts.  Additionally, Rocky Mountain ATV/MC will provide extra support with their house brands which consist of Tusk, Attack Graphics, Primary Drive, and Rider Cargo.

“We are very excited to jump into the Supercross ring with our Rocky Mountain ATV/MC Supercross team. Feld Motorsports has taken Supercross to new levels of popularity with hard core moto fans as well as everyday weekend riders and we are proud to be part of it,” said Dan Thomas CEO/President of Rocky Mountain ATV/MC, “We also feel that we have two young riders that will prove to be very competitive in the 2013 Supercross season.”

Correction, Bracken pulled a 10th at New Orleans east coast in one of the heat's missed main by one, so you can't say he never came close. @323mx

I like how this is a sport that we all love and enjoy, yet you always have to have the complainers who have to bash something that is good for the sport. Here is a company who is already giving back to the sport by being a sponsor already of Supercross and now they are giving two young riders the opportunity to chase their dream with a full rig and backing. Like a few others mentioned, we should be thanking them for bringing more support and recognition to this great sport, versus complaining and touting what a "mistake" it's going to be.
Thanks Rocky Mountain for supporting the sport and being a great company to shop with. Keep up the good the work.

I agree with those who have been supportive in their comments. Thank you Rocky Mountain for giving two great riders a better chance at their dreams. I will definitely buy from Rocky Mountain for their support of this team. In today's economy it's great to see increased support and these guys deserve it.

Amen JL Railer and gasket. I have yet another reason to love rocky mountain. I think it is great to see them supporting these guys and the sport. It seems like all the money in this sport goes to the top 3 guys; I am glad to see that they are helping some privateers out. It will be good for them too. a presence in the pits is always a good idea. It shows that RM is the real deal. most my orders went there anyway, but now all my orders will go there.
