CDR Rockstar Energy Drink Yamaha’s Jay Marmont has clinched his first Monster Energy Super X Championship with a convincing victory at Ipswich’s season finale tonight.

Marmont did what he had to do on a warm night in the Sunshine State, holeshotting the main event and clearing out to win ahead of title rival Tye Simmonds (JDR Motorex KTM) and Chris Blose (Hart and Huntington/InsureMyRide).

For Marmont it’s his fifth title since joining Yamaha in 2008 alongside four straight MX Nationals championships, also ranking as 2003 and 2004 Australian Supercross Champion.

“I’m over the moon!” Marmont said. “I’ve had nervous jitters all week, but I always believed we could get the job done. First of all I have to congratulate Tye and McCoy.

“I have to give it up to my team because we’ve had four awesome years, so to finally go back-to-back is a credit to them. I’m so emotional right now – I just need to thank everybody who made this possible.”

Second for Simmonds was a strong result, but ultimately not enough to steal the title from Marmont. Third in the series was Dan McCoy for Motul Pirelli Suzuki after finishing sixth tonight.

JDR Motorex KTM’s Matt Moss clinched his third career Super X Lites title with a calculated victory in Ipswich.

Moss made his way past American Gavin Faith with just a couple of laps remaining, the Carlton Dry Honda Thor Racing rider holding onto second from Kirk Gibbs (Serco Yoshimura Yamaha).

With the result, Moss was crowned champion ahead of Faith, while Gibbs’ teammate Luke Styke slipped to third in the series with a fifth in Queensland.

“It’s great you know, I signed with JDR at the start of the year and was able to win motocross and supercross on the 250F,” Moss said.

“I can’t say enough about JDR Motorex KTM, the team is like a big family. It feels so good to win this number one plate – let’s go to America and get one over there!”

Raceline Pirelli Suzuki’s Errol Willis won the Under 19s title with a seventh place finish, crashing out of the lead early and then doing what he needed to do to take the title.

Winner in the U19s was Honda privateer Geran Stapleton, ahead of Jarrad Davis (Yamaha) and Sam Martin (Suzuki).

Behind Willis in the title was Stapletone, with Corey Lucas third. Lucas was 10th in Ipswich, riding as a guest on the Motul Pirelli Suzuki team on Steven Clarke’s factory Lites bike.

The Junior Development main event was won by Hayden Mellross (Honda), ahead of series podium placers Kurt Waterman (Honda) and Billy Jackson (Yamaha).

Jackson’s third was good enough to secure the series, with Mellross second and Waterman third.
