All amateur riders competing in the 2015 MotoSport.com AX Tour are eligible.

At the conclusion of each round for the first 10 rounds, Jetwerx and Race Tech will select a Race TechRising Star Award Nominee from any of the amateur classes.  A rider who shows they can overcome adversity and outperform expectations showing a promising future inside and outside the world of motocross will be selected.  Prior to the final round, all nominees will then go through an evaluation by Race Tech and AX Tour staff and a winner will be announced at the awards banquet following the finals. Nominees at each round will receive a free Race Tech Gold Valve Kit, a RT tee, and a spotlight on ArenacrossTour.com.

"It's not very often you find partners who are committed and share your same visions.  Race Tech understands our commitment to supporting riders at the grass roots level and that is what the Race Tech Rising Star Award is all about!" said Justin Thompson, CEO Jetwerx USA Inc.

"The Arenacross Tour provides an excellent platform for amateur talent to get their feet wet in front of a large crowd at a professionally run event, so we are confident that many of today's top amateurs will become tomorrow's leading professionals.  We are excited to honor those amateur racers who show determination and promise on and off the track, and reward those riders with an unmatched level of suspension products and technical support," said Race Tech's Director of Marketing Chris Riesenberg.
