Play 2025 Motocross Summer of Pain
From Gate Drop, "An elite group of contenders will line up for the impending 54th season of the Pro Motocross Championship, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, where 11 rounds & a combined 44 motos will put the 450 Class & 250 Class fields to the ultimate test at the sport’s most storied venues, waking the sleeping giants of American motocross from their winter hibernation. The prizes that await at season’s end are the most prestigious trophies in the sport, the coveted Edison Dye Cup (450 Class) and Gary Jones Cup (250 Class)."
"Headlining the anticipation of the Pro Motocross Championship season is a replenished lineup of 450 Class talent and the anticipated return of a bevy of title contenders. An unusually high rate of attrition during the Supercross season saw many of the sport’s biggest names bow out due to injury, but each are rested, recovered, and ready to make a run for the Edison Dye Cup. Leading this group is a pair of former champions in Team Honda HRC Progressive’s Jett Lawrence, who will return from a torn ACL, and Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing’s Eli Tomac, who has recovered from a broken fibula."
"Also included is last year’s 450 Class runner-up Hunter Lawrence, with the Team Honda HRC Progressive rider fully healed from cracks in his humerus and surgery on a partially torn labrum. Another rider back from surgery is Monster Energy Kawasaki rider and back-to-back MXGP World Champion Jorge Prado, who saw his rookie Supercross season cut short just three races in and is the latest international superstar to bring his talents to U.S. soil. Rounding out the group of comeback contenders is fellow Monster Energy Kawasaki rider Jason Anderson, who sat out the final seven Supercross races, and Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing’s Justin Barcia, who chose to sit out the final three Supercross rounds to heal up from a knee injury."
"On paper, the amount of talent set to line up across both the 450 Class and 250 Class would suggest we’re in store for one of the most competitive seasons in the 53-year history of this prestigious championship,” concluded Coombs. “However, we all know nothing is for certain until the first gate drops at Fox Raceway over Memorial Day weekend. Who will emerge triumphant and make the first big statement of the summer? It’s anyone’s guess and that’s what makes the transition from Supercross to Pro Motocross such an exciting time. The second half of the SMX regular season is going to be incredible.”
For the 2025 Motocross Summer of Pain, we are switching up the format. Instead of hiring four 250 & four 450 riders for each round, players will now hire a hybrid 7 rider team for $3.25M.
This seven rider team can consist of any combination of 250 & 450 riders. The first motos of the 250 & 450 will be combined. As well as the second motos of both the 250 & 450 classes.
If you have played our MXGP game the past two seasons. The format will run rhe same. There will be two winners of each moto & on down thru the top 20.
Riders will still receive a 10 point bonus for finishing inside a moto's top 10. In other words, the orginal MotoXDream360 rules will remain the same. Simply a change of format. Want to hire five 250 riders & two 450 riders. Go for it. Any combination of seven riders with the $3.25M budget will work.
Join to play & good luck!
