Also who the heck is going to talk some sense into the major rv companies?? From the outside looking in I would think motocross is a very good market for them. I would definetly atleast consider X brand toy hauler if I saw them sponsoring a moto team or something. Hell let’s get international and Volvo involved while we’re at it
I would not like to see fast food chains get involved.
The Shop
CAT, John Deere, Kubota etc...Lot of moto guys that have their own private tracks and even locally owned public tracks use something to move dirt besides a shovel!
Those would be some things I believe would see ROI directly related to the moto community.
Pit Row
Makita
Surf Detergent
Fox
Oakley- Oakley thinks so little about moto that they don’t even have moto pictures in their stores
We hit several problems with Clear Channel (Feld predecessor) on interacting with fans at the races, which really turned off the sponsors. Plus CC and some sports marketing agencies were constantly slamming our sponsors for their business, which was another huge turn off.
The energy drinks are the right sponsors for the sport. They are selling very expensive sugar water to 14 to 24 year old males that think sugar water is cool and are easily influenced by a brand. The Home Depot, Sherwin-Williams, DuPont, GMC Trucks (all former sponsors of my other television series) measure everything and SX/MX does not generate enough viewers to their brand for the expense of sponsoring a team and leveraging the sponsorship. It is perfect for the OEMs, oil companies and auto/boat/motorcycle insurance.
How many guys are regulars at the local parts place? I'm always in there drunk off my ass covered in grease and oil looking for some tool or part. Or on the way to the track getting one last thing like chain lube or break parts cleaner
Boils my piss.
Also, people are critical of the MXGP for going to flat tracks on tarmac but as far as being a sponsor, if I want to invite them to an event as a VIP I don't need them digging their car our of a field afterwards and having to put mud gear on to get to a VIP tent.
