PICKERINGTON, Ohio -- Staying connected to the most-thrilling indoor motorsport on Earth is now easier than ever, thanks to a new AMA Supercross app for Apple and Android smartphones. The app includes live timing and scoring, series news and historical results, the American Motorcyclist Association reports.

"AMA Supercross fans accept no less than full-throttle action on the track, so it only makes sense that they'll want up-to-the-second data when they turn to their smartphones," said AMA Director of Supercross Kevin Crowther. "While live and in-person is always the best way to experience AMA Supercross, the AMA Supercross app delivers all that data and more to fans who can't make it to the track -- as well as those at the stadium who want a completely immersive experience."

In addition to live timing and scoring for each event, the official AMA Supercross app includes access to historical results, point standings, news and links to social media outlets so fans can share their excitement about AMA Supercross.

The AMA Supercross app is regularly priced at $1.99, but is available now for the pre-season price of $0.99. It can be downloaded from iTunes or the Google Play store. To buy the app, search for "AMA Pro Supercross."

AMA Supercross live timing and scoring is also available online at www.amasupercross.com. In addition to live race updates, www.amasupercross.com includes archived practice, qualifying and results information; on-location race-day photography by one of the sport's premier shooters, Jeff Kardas; the official 2013 AMA Supercross Series Media Guide; rider numbers and biographies; schedule and ticket information; the official AMA Supercross Series Rulebook; and rider bulletins and competition notices.

AMA Supercross live timing and scoring will begin Saturday, Jan. 5, as timed practice gets underway at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif. Photos, race reports, interviews and commentary will be posted as soon as they are available.
