Polaris ACE Video Contest Puts
You in the Driver’s Seat
Two lucky winners will win a
trip to race against the ACE Pro
Minneapolis, MN (6/9/2015)
- today announced the company will award
two lucky winners the ability to race against the
Pros in a Single-Seat Polaris ACE™ at the 2015 AMSOIL
Grand National Cross Country Series season finale.
Since its introduction in 2014, the ACE architecture
has gained popularity among a wide-variety of
riders, including racers, which was demonstrated
last fall when GNCC and Polaris offered an exhibition
ACE Editor’s Race at the Ironman, in Crawfordsville,
Indiana. From that race, Polaris worked with GNCC
to establish and sponsor the Single-Seat Class
and is continuing the effort with another ACE
event at this year’s GNCC Ironman race.
"Polaris ACE provides the beginning racer
a capable and affordable way to race while delivering
a truly competitive vehicle for the more experienced
racer,” said Dave Miriovsky, general manager for
Polaris ACE. “This contest is part of our continuing
commitment to promote Single-Seat Racing.”
The Polaris ACE is the ideal vehicle for GNCC’s
tight, wooded courses due to the vehicle’s compact
design and maneuverability. The revolutionary,
sit-in chassis combines the nimble handling of
an ATV with the security of a Side-by-Side resulting
in a race vehicle that is capable, comfortable
and inspires confidence.
“GNCC is excited to offer the Single Seat Class
and help Polaris promote ACE racing,” said GNCC
Director Tim Cotter. “We have no doubt that the
ACE is destined to be a mainstay in off-road.”
Starting June 1 through July 15, interested parties
can submit a 30-second to 1-minute video on Facebook
about why they feel they are the most capable,
confident person to race against the Single-Seat
Class Pros. The contest is open to anyone 18 years
of age and older with two categories for submissions,
current ACE owners and non-owners.
The most creative videos from each category,
as deemed by Polaris, will be posted on Polaris
Facebook for public voting. The submitter
from each category with the most votes will win
an all-expense paid trip to the AMSOIL Ironman
GNCC, at Ironman Raceway in Crawfordsville, Indiana,
on Sat., Oct. 31. Polaris will have a race-ready
ACE 570 waiting for them so they can race with
the Single-Seat Class Pros. Additionally, both
winners will go home with a new 2015 Polaris ACE
570 SP.
