Chino, CA (9/4/2007) -Yoshimura R&D of America
has announced a mid-year sponsorship agreement
with veteran ATV racer, Doug Eichner. Eichner
is currently racing in the WORCS and ITP QuadCross
series on the new Polaris 525 Outlaw.
"An opportunity came up with Doug and
we jumped at the chance," Yoshimura ATV
Brand Manager Kory Ellis explained. "We've
been looking to develop Polaris exhaust and
engine systems, and this is a perfect opportunity
to get the product out there and show what it
can do,"
Eichner is excited about the new relationship
"When I realized I needed a new sponsor
to address our exhaust and motor requirements,
I wanted to go with a high performance, race
oriented, reliable company that could help put
me on the podium. Yoshimura is a perfect partner
for success and is a company I have always had
tremendous respect for in both their performance
abilities and professionalism," Eichner
proudly said. "They will be doing engine
work as well as supplying exhaust systems."
Eichner has been racing for over 20 years and
is best known for winning the Pont de Vaux seven
times. He most recently won the August round
of the ITP QuadCross in the Open Pro Class and
is second in points in the WORCS series.
