Orient Express remains MIROCK PST sponsor & U.S. Nationals Sponsor
March 20, 2013
Once again, Orient Express has renewed their sponsorship contract for the famous Pro Street class featuring the World’s Fastest Streetbikes in the MIROCK Superbike Series. Orient Express has been the class sponsor of the Pro Street ever since its inception into the series in 2009.
Orient Express is responsible for posting the huge $5,200 total purse in the Pro Street class: $2,500 to win, $1,000 to runner-up, $250 to semis, $150 to 1/4 finals, and $75 to 1/8 finals. Even with this large purse the entry fee is kept at only $150.
”The Orient Express Pro Street class draws a lot of media exposure, and bikes are being built and purchased worldwide. That is pretty incredible to think that what these riders are doing here in the states sends ripples across the globe. We have had riders from South Africa, and the UK compete already and have new riders from Aruba and New Zealand that plan to participate in MIROCK in 2013.” Stated by MIROCK’s Promoter Jason Miller.
Orient Express President Skip Dowling confirmed, "Joe Hahn and I are glad to be back with MIROCK for the 2013 season. We're really excited to see new records set by the world's fastest street bikes! By once again sponsoring the Orient Express Pro-Street class, we hope to give back to all the racers and customers who have shown us their ongoing support."
On top of their support of the MIROCK Pro Street class, Orient Express has also signed on as the title sponsor of the famous Motorcycle U.S. Nationals Sponsor at Atco Dragway on September 6-8, 2013. This will be the 44th year of this famous event in New Jersey and will now be run under the MIROCK banner. Be sure to stay tuned for more details on this great event to follow soon.
