MotoAmerica VIP Superfans raised $4,000 for Talent Cup privateer Bandit Landers at New Jersey Motorsports Park. The 17-year-old earned a career-best sixth-place finish on Saturday. The funds came from auctions and donations during the season finale.

Expanded Detail

Bandit Landers, 17, races a No. 17 Krämer APX-350 MA for Jones Honda Powerhouse in MotoAmerica Talent Cup. Her family is steeped in racing: father Stoney and brother Rocco competed, while sister Bo and crew chief Cameron Jones joined her at New Jersey Motorsports Park.

The $4,000 came from season-finale VIP fundraising, including auctions led by Tyler O’Hara and Kyle Wyman, plus donations from VIPs Bob McKenna and Joey Bones. Landers’ Saturday sixth was her best 2026 result.

Context

The payout may highlight how fan-funded programs can help young privateer racers cover travel, training, and equipment costs. It could encourage more grassroots support for female riders and families in motorsport, while giving sponsors and series organizers a model to promote accessibility. The immediate effect is likely small, but visible gestures like this may influence aspiring racers and fans who see community backing as a way to sustain participation.
