Suzuki Pro ATV Racer, Jeremine Warnia

Brea, CA (7/23/2008) - Jeremie
Warnia, Suzuki Pro ATV racer from Paris, France,
made a guest appearance this weekend at the
fifth round of the ITP QuadCross Series held
at Glen Helen Raceway, San Bernardino, Calif.
Warnia had a 2-1 victory, which was enough
to clinch the overall from Doug Eichner. More
interesting was that Warnia's Suzuki QuadRacer
R450 was a nearly stock unit with only minor
aftermarket mods, including Yoshimura exhaust,
Fox shocks and JB A-Arms. In a field of highly
modified bikes, Warnia showed the true power
of the stock machine to awed onlookers surrounding
the challenging course.
In France, 21-year old Warnia is the national
SuperQuad Champion of 2004, 2006 and 2007
as well as Spanish MX Cross Champion of 2006.
In that year, he also attained second place
in the French National Championship.
Warnia was excited to have the opportunity
to race with the U.S. Pros and was very pleased
with this victory. "I love racing in
America," said the French champ. "The
tracks are really fun and the people I have
met have been very nice to me. I always wanted
to ride at Glen Helen as it is a well-known
track in France. I look forward to trying
to qualify for the Red Bud National event
this weekend."
