Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Josh Creamer was honored at the National Suzuki Dealer Meeting held in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday. Creamer won his first AMA ATV MX Championship in 2010 aboard his Rockstar Makita Suzuki QuadRacer R450, powered by Yoshimura. The teamwork of Yoshimura and Suzuki helped Josh win the first title of his professional racing career and make the 2010 season one for the history books.
Yoshimura handmade a special trophy to commemorate Josh's phenomenal racing season, his first aboard the championship-winning QuadRacer R450. The trophy features a crankshaft and a piston, and was custom made just for Josh and presented to him on stage in front of a room full of Suzuki dealers.
"This is one of the trickest trophies I've ever seen," Josh said after being presented with the award. "It looks like Yoshimura spent a long time designing and building this trophy, and I really appreciate their effort and all their support in my run to the championship this year. It's been a really great year, and I want to thank Suzuki and Yoshimura for all their help in making my championship so memorable."
The Rockstar Makita Suzuki team and Yoshimura are extremely proud of Josh's effort and talent, and want to congratulate him on a great year on the racetrack.
