“We’re happy to announce an expanded 2024 bLU cRU Off-Road Racing Contingency Program for the upcoming supercross, motocross, and SMX season, which is nearly 40% over 2023,” said Tom Halverson, the Yamaha Racing Assistant Department Manager for YMUS. “Our bLU cRU program has proven beneficial to Yamaha riders who excel in competition. We’re excited about the opportunity to increase the total funds to $5 million, rewarding Yamaha-supported and privateer racers at the most prestigious and challenging events in our sport. We have also included the addition of $300 for making the night show at 14 rounds of supercross outside of the Triple Crown and SMX Playoff rounds, further helping the racing aspirations of many bLU cRU competitors.”
