Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing is pleased to announce a multi-year deal with Daxton Bennick. The 17-year-old from Morganton, North Carolina, came on board late last year for a six-month trial with the team. Together they have enjoyed multiple wins and championships in the amateur ranks and look to build on that success in the future.
Following the conclusion of the 2023 Supercross Futures season, Bennick now has his sites set on the Monster Energy AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship at Loretta Lynn Ranch. The young rider will also get the opportunity to race the Scouting Moto Combine and select rounds in the AMA Pro Motocross 250MX Championship.

“It was really exciting getting to sign my contract this past weekend. Bobby (Regan) made it super special. I’ve worked hard for this. I have a super unique story about it all, but we took a risk, and it paid off. I am super happy with everything here, and I know I’m on the best team, and they want to win just as bad as I do.”
