Top Suzuki Riders to Compete in
AMA Pro ATV Open Invitational
Brea, CA (8/22/2007)
- American Suzuki Motor Corporation is proud to
participate in the first-ever AMA Pro ATV Open
Invitational. This exciting event will be held
next weekend at the Steel City Raceway on the
day before the AMA Motocross Race.
By combining the two disciplines in one weekend,
fans of both 4 wheel and 2 wheel racing will get
to experience the excitement of the other's events.
Suzuki will be sending five riders to this prestigious
event that will be held Saturday, August 25th:
Team Rockstar/MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro Taper
rider and 2006 WPSA SuperQuad Pro 450 Champion
- Doug Gust
Team MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro Taper rider and
2006 second place WPSA finalist and current title
contender - Dustin Wimmer
Team Rockstar/MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro Taper
rider and current third place points leader –
Chad Wienen
Suzuki/Yoshimura Pro Rider and current ITP QuadCross
Series Points Leader – Kory Ellis
Suzuki Support Rider and 2006 WPSA "A"
Class Champion – Russell Shumaker
"Suzuki is honored to be asked to join the
other three major ATV manufacturers in what is
sure to be a truly special event," Rod Lopusnak,
Suzuki's ATV Operations Manager commented. "Pitting
the best of the best will be enjoyable for riders
and fans alike, plus we will be elevating the
awareness of the sport to a whole new audience."
Look for 7 Suzuki QuadRacer R450s to be out front
when the checkers fall as Lost Creek Cycles has
also been invited and will be sending riders Joe
Haavisto and Jason Dunkleburger. The fact that
almost 30% of the field will riding Suzukis shows
once again that Suzuki is clearly the racer's
choice. True to the tradition – Suzuki is
serious about the sport.
