Langston-Witt Racing to Compete in the Monster Energy Cup 

AURORA, Ill. (June 1, 2012) – Feld Motor Sports^® caught up with Langston-Witt Racing Team Manager and two-time Supercross Lites Class Champion Grant Langston to discuss the second-annual Monster Energy Cup at Las Vegas’ Sam Boyd Stadium on October 20. Langston announced today that his team will be lining up at this year’s Monster Energy Cup. 

“The Monster Energy Cup is a great event,” said Langston. “I think it’s cool to have a different format and I like how the track is a bit different. It definitely brought a cool factor to the race. We plan to be there and are excited to see how things play out.” 

To hear more of Langston’s thoughts on the Monster Energy Cup, check out the video below:  

The 2012 Monster Energy Cup features an all-new track design inspired by five-time Supercross Class Champion Ricky Carmichael. The Carmichael-inspired track design will consist of supercross and motocross obstacles unlike any other racetrack design in the world. More than 200’ of the track will be built into the grandstands, and the riders exit the stadium and race through the Monster Energy Fan Zone outside of the stadium and through the pit area before they catapult back into the stadium. The Monster Energy Cup posts a $250,000 purse with the winner walking away with a $100,000 check, and any rider that wins all three Main Events will take home $1 million.
