Carson Mumford is a California-bred 250 racer with the full backing of the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing program. The team's 250 program has produced championship talent at a remarkable rate, and Mumford's placement reflects both his amateur credentials and the team's assessment of his future potential.
Twelfth in the 250SX West championship with 70 points, Mumford has established himself as a consistent scorer in one of the deepest 250 fields in recent memory. The West Coast series features multiple factory riders from every major manufacturer, and finishing 12th requires both speed and execution across a long championship.
"Red Bull KTM gives me everything I need to win. Now it's about putting it all together every round."
— Carson Mumford · Red Bull KTM Factory RacingThe KTM 250 Program
Red Bull KTM's 250 program is built around the same engineering philosophy as the 450 — maximum performance from a factory-spec platform. For Mumford, the KTM 250 SX-F Factory Edition provides the technical advantage to compete at the front of the West field, and the team's expertise accelerates his development.
Red Bull KTM Factory Racing
Red Bull KTM Factory Racing fields factory-spec machines in both the 250 and 450 classes of AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross. The Husqvarna brand traces its racing roots to the Swedish forests of the 1960s, and the current program represents the modern expression of that racing heritage — with full KTM Group engineering backing and Rockstar Energy as the title sponsor.
Red Bull KTM →California to the Top
California supercross riders have an inherent preparation advantage. Mumford's development in that environment has given him technical foundations that show up every weekend. His 70 points in 2026 reflect a rider building steadily toward the front of the championship.
