Australian MotoGP rider Jack Miller is a last entry hour for the July 21 round of the 2024 Australia Pro Motocross round six in Toowoomba.
Taking advantage of a break in the MotoGP calendar, 29-year-old Miller will add box-office star power to the premier Thor MX1 class on a Caterpillar-backed ‘Thriller Motorsports’ KTM, with the nation’s elite talent awaiting him in the two 25-minute plus a lap motos. However, the four-time MotoGP winner is no slouch in the motocross saddle himself, spending large chunks of his spare time cutting laps on his beloved KTM 450SX-F.
“A little spontaneous for me to throw a leg over the dirt bike at a national-level event, but in keeping with my typical last-minute fashion I thought I’d give it a crack. I’ve been watching the series closely this year, and it has really impressed me. It’s always awesome to give my partners a little more than we planned by doing these unique one-off events away from the MotoGP circuit, not to mention filling my own cup by riding dirt bikes in general.” said Miller.
Miller has also competed in regional motocross events in Australia over the past few years, with his natural talent, tenacity and competitive instincts seeing him claim the scalps of several seasoned campaigners.
