The first round of the SMX Next (formerly Supercross Futures) will take place this weekend in conjunction with round 4 of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship.
What is SMX Next, here is how the SMX League explains it all:
The SMX Next program combines the three Scouting Moto Combines with Feld Motor Sports’ five-race SMX Next – Supercross program and culminates with the SMX Next World All-Stars during the SMX World ChampionshipTM Playoffs for a season-long collaborative effort to cultivate the development of top prospects from the talent-laden amateur level of the sport. SMX Next will officially commence for the 2025 season this Saturday at the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship round from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, which will host the first SMX Next – Supercross event of the year.
The main event this weekend will run prior to the 250 and 450 race 3 of the Triple Crown and will be 8 minutes plus 1 lap.
