Australian Supercross Championship press release:

Organisers of round two of the 2015 Australian Supercross Championship have announced Logan City Council as an official sponsor of the national championship event being held at Jimboomba X Stadium on October 17.

In what is set to be one of the most spectacular sporting events to take place in the City of Logan all year, the Australian Supercross Championship second round, which is being presented by major sponsor GoPro and series sponsor Penrite, has drawn a capacity field of the country’s best Supercross racers – and visiting international stars – to do battle on a brand new USA-style race track built at the Jimboomba X Stadium venue.

And with the largest ever crowd for a Jimboomba X Stadium event expected to be in attendance for the Australian Supercross Championship contest, the economic impact for Jimboomba and the City of Logan will be massive.

“The Australian Supercross Championship at Jimboomba X Stadium is shaping up to be huge,” enthuses Scott Bannan, promoter of round two (and round four, at Coolum on November 21) of the Championship.

“The response to the event from the Jimboomba community has been fabulous, with so many local businesses weighing in with their support, while the support of Logan City Council as an official sponsor is a brilliant endorsement of Supercross and the positive impact the event will have on the region.”

For Logan City Council, the opportunity to be involved as an official sponsor of the Jimboomba round of the Australian Supercross Championship was one that Council was enthusiastic to put its support behind.

“These kinds of high-energy race events have a massive following in Jimboomba and across our city, so Logan City Council is very excited to lend its support to the Australian Supercross Championship,” Councillor Luke Smith said.

“The fact Jimboomba X Stadium has a dedicated track for these kinds of events will give Supercross riders and spectators a chance to see something special.

“The people and businesses of Jimboomba are also right behind this event, so I would encourage people to arrive early and explore this relaxing and beautiful part of our city.”

All the action of round two of the Australian Supercross Championship at Jimboomba X Stadium roars into life on the afternoon of October 17 with gates opening at 2pm, then kicking into gear with a pit party at 4pm for fans to meet the Stars of Supercross, followed by racing from 5pm.

Advance purchase tickets to the Jimboomba event are available now via the www.e-ticket.com.au web site.
