The world’s top extreme sports athletes will face off against one other in a unique event at Pole Position Raceway in Corona, California on January 12. The best motorcycle racers, skateboarders, rally car drivers, stunt riders, personal watercraft racers, off- road truck stars and more will compete head-to-head at the legendary indoor kart track in the 2nd Annual Monster Energy Extreme Sports Indoor Kart Challenge. Doors open at 4 p.m. and Opening Ceremonies kick off at 7 p.m. Admission is only $12. Last year’s event included AMA Supercross Champion Chad Reed, World Record Motorcycle Jumpers Robbie Maddison and Ronnie Renner, factory motocross star Kevin Windham, freestyle rider Todd Potter, AMA National MX Champion Grant Langston, off-road truck stars Kyle and Todd Leduc, NASCAR’s Stanton Barrett and skateboarding legend Ryan Sheckler. There’s also a free motorcycle stunt show at 4:30 p.m. by factory Kawasaki Monster Energy’s Kane Friesen who holds the world record for the fastest nose wheelie at 137mph and over a half million dollars worth of authentic racing memorabilia inside the race track. Pole Position Raceway will also donate a portion of the proceeds to sponsor local sports team in southern California. Since opening in 2005 the chain of five indoor go kart tracks has helped raise over $500,000 for non- profit groups including Toys For Tots, Full Circle Foundation, Sam Schmidt Paralysis Foundation, Michelle’s Place, and has supported cancer and spinal cord research. Pole Position Raceway was created by a dedicated group of racers including NASCAR Champ Kurt Busch, AMA Supercross Champions Jeremy McGrath and Chad Reed, AMA National MX Champions Grant Langston and Greg Albertyn, IndyCar racer Sam Schmidt, X-Games Freestyle Gold Medalist Mike Metzger, and dozens more.
