Suzuki Dominates Round 1 Of ITP/ATVA MX Series
In the dusty valley of Glen Helen Raceway in Southern California, the sun wasn't the only thing shining. Dustin Wimmer and teammate Chad Weinen grabbed the No. 1 and 2 positions with Team Monster Energy/Kawasaki's Josh Creamer taking the final position on the podium. The track was very fast and by the end of the day was extremely rough pushing all of the riders and their machines to the limits. Wimmer's day couldn't have gone any better, with 1-1 moto finishes and a commanding lead over second place.

"I don't know how, but the Suzuki QuadRacers just keep getting better," team manager Kory Ellis said. "The new model has an even more powerful engine, and the suspension is great. The Suzukis and our riders look like the ones to beat. It's the best possible way to start the season."

Suzuki Celebrates 25th Anniversary Of "First on 4 Wheels"
In 1983 Suzuki released the first-ever QuadRunner. The LT-125 was the first four-wheeled ATV to hit the market and led the way for many high-quality ATVs that have since rolled out from under the yellow tent. To recognize the anniversary, Suzuki will attend five regional ATV events and invites all Suzuki owners to share in the celebration. Event activities will include demo rides, food, prizes and even youth contests. Just look for the large Suzuki hospitality tent to see what yellow has in store for you.

KTM On A Roll At GNCC
At the second round of the Can-Am GNCC series, KTM-mounted riders Adam McGill and Taylor Kiser continued to show they were a team to be reckoned with. With respectable finishes of fourth and fifth at the 2008 season opener in Florida, the drive to Georgia only made them better. McGill started off by grabbing the holeshot of the two-hour race and never looked back as he took the checkers. Not only did he win, he was more than six minutes ahead of teammate Kiser, who rode the orange machine to the second-place position. "I'm so happy to finish on top! We have a great team this year. My bike is running great and is unbelievably smooth. I'm glad to finally be up here; it's been a long time coming," McGill said after the race.
