Palo Alto, CA, March 22, 2008 --(PR.com)-- XBux Inc., a division of the XTRM Sports Network and the fastest growing online and offline action sports network for sponsors, promoters, competitors and fans, today announced that the company, in conjunction with Hall of Fame promoter Gavin Trippe and the help of Troy Lee of Troy Lee Designs, is the event promoter of the 2008 AMA Supermoto Championship Series.

"After the dust settles with the recently announced AMA sale process and the upcoming association with Daytona Motorsports Group, Supermoto will be back stronger than ever with a platform to grow the sport exponentially,” said Trippe. “And XBux brings excitement, resources, and a whole new dimension to the table that will attract a new generation of fans, competitors and sponsors.”

"XBux is pleased to have the opportunity to effectively blend production of a premier series, with relevant new technology and a rapidly growing community of competitors, fans, and sponsors,” said CEO Joe Lynam. “Our unique blend of technology based marketing applications and key relationships with leading sponsors, combined with our grass roots event services will help drive Supermoto and many other action sports to a new level.”
