Beta USA Signs Benny Bloss to Race 2024 AMA Supercross

Italian manufacturer is going supercross racing in 2024.

June 5, 2023

Beta USA has announced it will contest the 2024 AMA Supercross series with two riders. The first racer signed to Liqui Moly Beta Racing’s SX effort is Benny Bloss, who will compete on the yet-to-be-released 450 RX model. The Missouri native will begin testing in August to get a head start on setting up the Italian motorcycle for indoor racing.

“I’m extremely excited to join the Beta Factory Racing team! It’s cool to see a brand with such a rich history in off-road racing to come into the US supercross and motocross space. I know this team will be capable of great things as we build and go racing in 2024.” —Benny Bloss, Liqui Moly Beta RacingBeta

In the meantime, Beta USA race team manager Carlen Gardner will work on finding the team’s second rider. Although it’s a supercross-only effort (at least for now), Liqui Moly Beta Racing says it may elect to race select AMA Pro Motocross rounds in 2024 as well.

“The wait is over and we can finally share everything we have been working toward,” Gardner said. “It has been a great experience being a part of this development and seeing the progression. The only missing part was finding a rider that would mesh well with our Beta family. After one phone call with Benny, we knew it would be a good fit for him and for us. We are happy to have him on board for the next two years and can’t wait to see everyone at Anaheim in January.”
