Final Three Named for Miss MEC
Meet the Final Three Contestants in the Search for Miss Monster Energy Cup
AURORA, Ill. – Click the video below to meet the final three contestants campaigning for Miss Monster Energy Cup. The search for Miss Monster Energy Cup was narrowed down to: Mayra Tinajero, of San Diego, Crystal Cunningham, of Hesperia, Calif., and Ashleigh Fisher, of Houston. The lucky winner, who will be announced Monday, October 8, will receive an all-expense paid trip to the Monster Energy Cup on October 20 at Las Vegas’ Sam Boyd Stadium to serve as the spokesmodel for this lucrative race.
The search for Miss Monster Energy Cup started with 25 randomly selected girls across the nation and has been lessened down the remaining three, whose profiles can be viewed at www.MonsterEnergyCup.com.
The 2012 Monster Energy Cup features an all-new track design inspired by five-time Supercross Class Champion Ricky Carmichael. The Carmichael-inspired track design will consist of supercross and motocross obstacles unlike any other racetrack design in the world. New to this year’s track will be a 200’ banked sweeping turn that will be built in the stands, two 11 rider starting gates split by 220’ before they converge at the apex of the 300’ start straight and the joker lane that riders will have to race through at least once during laps 2-10. After racing through these sections of the track, fans will be treated to equally exciting racing lanes that are built into the Monster Energy Fan Zone, which is located outside of the stadium. The Monster Energy Cup posts a $250,000 purse with the winner walking away with a $100,000 check, and any rider that wins all three Main Events will take home $1 million.
