Championship within a Championship.......

Another not so great idea?
or just needs some "Hype"?
Maybe it needs a name...like "The Ignite Triple Crown of Supercross"?
...even this years "Champion" mentioned in his post race interview that he didn't know about it....

I like the format. Makes for interesting racing. People say it's a worthless title...but why? Coming out on top of 3 events with 3 mains each.

It made me chuckle when Coop on the podium was being congratulated for being crowned the triple crown champion and said something about "yea I didn't know about the triple crown thing, so uh yea, it was great!".

Something obviously isn't working if the guy winning the championship doesn't even know he's part of a championship...

needs a sponsor...Million dollar purse split between the top 5 guys?

How about Disney?

"Cooper Webb you just won the Triple Crown of Supercross! What are you going to do next?"

"I'm going to Disneyland!" Tongue

One of the big problems
In the sport is lack of marketable $$$$$$$$ riders can make. want headlines throw some cash out there!! Just last indycar race at cota whoever was on pole had a chance at $100k bonus if they won. xfinity series. Top 4 series guys from Texas race now make an additional $100k per race if they are top of the four in the next 4 races. Feld sucks. Share the love some for fuks sake!!

There needs to be a payout for it to be worth a damn.

Also, just wanted to mention that the Vans Triple Crown that occurred in 3 races during the 2000 series (19 years ago!) was worth $500k if a rider won all 3 events... And here we are in 2019 awarding what, again? "Hey bro you won it!".

Sad shit.
