AUS-X Open fans will have the chance to become a millionaire with the addition of the all-new ‘AUS-X Million’ to this year’s Sydney spectacular set for 11-12 November inside Qudos Bank Arena.

An exciting incentive for race fans in 2017, the AUS-X Million gives any two-day ticket holders the chance to win $1,000,000 by correctly guessing the top 12 SX1 main event finishers on both Saturday and Sunday night.

Australian freestyle motocross icon, stuntman and 2017 AUS-X Open competitor Robbie Maddison expressed his excitement following the addition of the AUS-X Million to this year’s third annual running of the world class event.

“This is nuts! Anyone who purchases tickets to both nights of the the AUS-X Open could walk away a millionaire!” said Maddison. “If there was any greater incentive for fans new and old to come check out all the AUS-X Open action, I’d like to hear it!”

Not only will two-day ticket holders have the chance to walk away a millionaire, but individual day ticket holders too will have their shot at winning $500,000 if they choose the top 12 finishing order correctly on their selected night of racing action.

Event co-founder Ryan Sanderson looks forward to offer an Australian first and a life changing opportunity to their dedicated AUS-X Open fans at no extra cost to a regular ticket purchase.

“We’re absolutely ecstatic to be able to announce the ‘AUS-X Million’ today and give each and every one of our attendees a shot at a life changing $1,000,000 at no extra cost just by purchasing any ticket to both nights of this year’s event,” Sanderson said.

“Our team here at AUS-X Open have worked tirelessly for over two years to get this amazing competition across the line and it wouldn’t be possible without the massive support of our loyal fans who make the pilgrimage to Sydney each year. We feel like offering them this opportunity, is just reward for their loyalty to the event.

“The atmosphere is going to be electric across both nights of the AUS-X Open and fans have yet another reason to cheer for their favourite Supercross riders to finish in the order they selected. We can’t wait to see if a ticket holder can win $500,000 or the ‘AUS-X Million’, it certainly would be a very special experience to witness.”
