From XDL: Welcome to the XDL U.S. Stunt Riding Championship. In December of 2005 we brought a new format to the U.S., the combination of freestyle drifting and stunt riding. It showed us the undeniable appeal of stunt riding and we decided to get more involved by offering stunt riders a national championship series with real prize money: The XDL U.S. Stunt Riding Championship.
For 2006 we are putting together a 3 events series consisting of an East and West Coast qualifying round and a final shoot out. To maximize the entertainment value we are running the XDL U.S. Stunt Riding Championship as part of GT LIVE. Our "Best of the West" qualifier is May 12 & 13 at Phoenix International Raceway. The "East Coast Eliminator" runs October 6-8 at Virginia International Raceway.
Each of our rounds is invitation-only and will consist of a maximum of 30 riders. The top ten finisher advance to the finals. Our main competition is Individual Freestyle which offers riders 10Gs in prize money. Other competitions are Team Battle and Sickest Trick. Confirmed riders for the West Coast round include some of the best in the country:
* Jason Britton
* Eric Whitcomb
