Jason Britton Set to Perform at NJMP MotoAmerica
Many off-track events are scheduled for the final round of MotoAmerica at New Jersey Motorsports Park (NJMP) in Millville, New Jersey, the weekend of September 12-13. Besides the Superbike showdown between Monster Energy Graves Yamaha pilots Josh Hayes – a four-time AMA SuperBike Champion – and Cameron Beaubier, much will be happening off the track.
Highlighting the festivities is the appearance of one of the world’s top sportbike freestylers – Jason Britton. The Monster Energy Kawasaki ZX-6R rider – featured as a stunter in sportbike movies such as as “Torque” and “Biker Boys,” along with appearances in commercials for Nike, Pepsi and McDonalds – will perform during breaks of the MotoAmerica season finale.
Britton will perform his motorcycle stunts on Saturday, September 12 (10 a.m., noon and 3 p.m.) and Sunday, September 13 (9 a.m., noon and 2 p.m.).
“I can’t think of a better way to end our inaugural season of MotoAmerica than to have Jason perform at our final round,” said MotoAmerica partner Chuck Aksland. “Having someone of his skillset perform for our fans just adds to what already promises to be a great event at NJMP. We have three championships still to be decided on the racetrack and now we’ve got one of the premiere stunt riders in the world set to join us and entertain our fans. It promises to be an awesome weekend in New Jersey.”
