Re: This is the "STUNT DISCUSSION FORUM!!!"
Back on the subject of Stunt Discussions...
Stay tuned... there are more plans in the works for 2005 to re-form a professional series. But here is the deal... if everyone supports it, the sport will succeed. If you don't it will fail. Your choice. (By the way... support included actually attending events as a competitor and/or a spectator.)
Here is the key... just as I have explained to everyone before...Two things that can jumpstart this sport and make it a viable media option:
Regional and National Championship events
* 3 regions (East, Central, West) with 6 events in each region which all pay regional points toward regional championships. The events can be already established events such as Stuntfest, etc.
* Select 2 events in each region to make up 6 national events. Those national events will host regional and national championship classes and pay regional and national points towards both championships.
* This provides credibility to regional teams, regional sponsors, and makes competing more financially viable for smaller teams (amateur or pro status).
* This also provides a credible national series that may be more attractive to the larger teams / riders and more nationally interested sponsors.
* Both series provide a viable media option for magazines, local papers, cable and network programming.
MotoFreestyle / USFreestyle (television based tour)
25 riders perform in main event per city
1st 10 riders chosen for the tour by management
5 more chosen by the top 10 riders
Total now of 15 riders
10 more are decided upon event qualifying to reach a total of 25.
Top 15 or all 25 riders receive compensation based on developed budgets.
Those 25 compete to make / select the top 10 riders for next city.
The new top 10 don't qualify for next city, nor do their choices for next 5.
This way the tour constantly changes players (theoretically) and stays diverse. However it may include the same 15-25 riders in each city. The event can be consistent weeks, or spaced throughout the year.
Find sponsor like Parts Unlimited / Speedrag / Icon / RedBull / Gatorade / Pepsi... etc to become a promotional sponsor. Financing should cover all promotional items such as posters, flyers, full time promotional staff (x2), tv production costs, purse money @ $25k (minimum) per round, insurance, track rentals, etc (additional $25k). Maybe budget $50k per round plus salaries and transportation for staffing. So probably $800k without tv production costs would produce a great series of 10 events. Then produce one video per round, so you now have 10 individual DVDs at 60 min each, with the option to produce several 2-pack and 5-pack units to sell as well that can help fund the series and provide larger purses the remaining year.
A series.
