You could have someone sponsor the title and pay for the branding of the championship.

I see Eli Tomac surpassing Roczen in total points combined by the end of the year.

That's what we want, races that still mean something to the top guys. Even Webb might catch a spark if a title was on the line.

I was thinking it would be cool to see it through the years.

That leads me to another bitch, the weighted point system vs. the olympic style points system. That's for another thread.

Only way it could work if there was massive prize money up for grabs, TV time and more outside sponsors where engaged.
the amount of effort from every one to make it work for little prize money.. there isn't a justification for it.

This is how Honda can break the curse of the bambino. Just create a new championship they are already leading midway through the series!

We have far greater problems to fix than this. Let’s start with 25 out of 40 riders getting lapped in the “premier” class. After that lets teach the NBC film crew how cool our sport looks from the ground not from a satellite view. Never going to happen I know.
You do realise there was a time when 39 riders were a lap down?

I'm all for it!

One thing, has to be a different sponsor than either series' present premier sponsor.

You can't have the Monster SX, Lucas Oil MX and then Monster Superchamp...that just diminishes Lucas' brand. Makes them look small.

I'd never agree to that.

Each series would have to be of equal billings, value, purses and more and then a third party would need to step in as some sort of an overall sponsor and ultimate billing. If Monster wants it, fine, but they can't also sponsor SX also.

Could be "Part of the Monster AMA Superchamp Title"

But SX would have to become "HIllbilly's CDB Chew" or something else
