Tyler Bowers the Defending 2011 AMA Arenacross Series Champion to Race Inaugural Monster Energy Cup

It was announced that defending 2011 AMA Arenacross Series champion Tyler Bowers will compete in the hybrid supercross/motocross inaugural Monster Energy Cup on October 15 at Las Vegas' Sam Boyd Stadium.

Bowers, of Danville, Ken., capped off a dominant 2011 AMA Arenacross Series with 12 main event wins, clinching the championship one race before the season finale at Des Moines, Iowa's Well Fargo Arena. Last year Bowers was leading the AMA Arenacross points race with two rounds remaining, but a crash while practicing resulted in a broken leg, putting an end to Bowers' championship hopes.

"I think it's awesome to be riding for a shot at $1 Million," said Bowers. "The huge purse is great, but the racing element is just as good, because bragging rights hold a higher standard in my books. This is a no holds bar race. We want to be the first to win the Monster Energy Cup, regardless of the bonus."
