COLT NICHOLS JOINS BETA FOR AMA SX

2 years ago | Words: Matt Bernard | Photos: Beta

The Liqui Moly Beta Racing Team has secured the signing of Colt Nichols for a two-year deal in the 450SX class at AMA Supercross. This move comes after the recent revelation that Benny Bloss would also be racing for Beta in 2024. Nichols, who turned Pro in 2015, has shown immense talent throughout his career, finishing third in the 250SX West in 2019 and claiming victory in the 250SX East Championship in 2021. He was also honoured as the 450SX Rookie of the Year in 2023.

The Liqui Moly Beta Racing Team expressed their delight in working with Nichols for the next two years. “We are very pleased to be working with Colt for the next two years. He is an excellent representative on and off the track and fits in perfectly with our Beta family. Colt, getting the Rookie of the Year award in the 450 class, proved he has great potential in the premier class, and we look to carry that momentum going into 2024. It was very important to us to find two riders such as Colt and Benny to lead the way as Beta gets into Supercross racing. See everyone at A1!” said Carlen Gardner, Race Team Manager.

Alongside Benny Bloss, Colt will play a crucial role in leading the way for Beta Motorcycles in the highly competitive world of Supercross.

“I’m very excited to be signed with the Liqui Moly Beta Racing Team for the 24’ and 25’ seasons. It means a lot to me to be able to pioneer a new brand coming into Supercross and I’m going to represent this brand/team as best as I possibly can. Couldn’t be happier and I can’t wait to get started!”
