Tulsa, OK (1/08/2011) - While rumors are rampant as to who will be riding what for the 2011 AMA ATV Motocross Championships, and many racers are still struggling to find support, Chase Snapp has no worries as he knows exactly where he will be when the gate drops for the first race of the season.

After winning the 2010 AMA ATV MX Pro-am Production Class Championship, Chase Snapp will be making the jump to the Pro class for 2011 aboard the Can-Am DS450 as part of the manufacturer’s X-team. “I’m really excited to be on a Can-Am for 2011. Change can be a good thing and I am really looking forward to this,” stated Snapp, who, like many other racers was scrambling to find a deal for 2011, until getting a phone call out of the blue from Can-Am’s team manager, Jimmie O’Dell.

In addition to Can-Am, Snapp will be receiving support from Bell Helmets, JB Racing, Fox Shocks, Motoworks, DWT, Rath Racing, Hinson, SSI, Fly, Easton and Precision.

On top of racing Nationals, Chase Snapp will be getting in some extra seat time at the popular Texas series, the TQRA. “Last year I was on the road all season long and couldn’t race anything other than Nationals, but the dates for those don’t conflict this year so I get to race both of them,” Snapp said.

As far as taking on the pressures of the going Pro, Snapp is confident 2011 will be a good year for him. “I’ve been working for this my whole life and I am ready for it,” he said.
