POWERSPORTS ATV TOUR
REVISES OPEN AMATEUR MX CLASS
TO INCLUDE NON-PRODUCTION AND HYBRID ATVS
 WHITE
BEAR LAKE, Minn. (May 12, 2006) — The WPSA
PowerSports Snowmobile Tour revised its rules
governing its QuadMX Series’ Class 10: Open
Amateur to include non-production ATVs. The move
will allow riders with so-called “hybrid” and
non-production ATVs to compete with the Tour,
beginning with next weekend’s season opener (May
20-21), the ITP Daniel Boone ATV Championship at
Daniel Boone MX in London, Ky.
The class will still feature a 91cc to an
unlimited engine displacement. Both two- and
four-stroke engines are allowed. It will remain
an amateur class.
“We have received a lot of feedback, asking
us to allow non-production ATVs to compete on
the PowerSports ATV Championship Tour,” said
Tour Director Tes Sewell. “This revision will
allow this large and diverse group of racers to
compete with some of North America’s top ATV
riders. We think this is another move in the
right direction.”
Additionally, two QuadTerrain Challenge
classes have been renamed to better reflect
their rules. Class 20 will now be know as
QuadTerrain Open and Class 21 will be called
QuadTerrain Superlite. Both remain amateur
classes. QuadTerrain Pro-Am Unlimited and the
Pro Stock classes remain unchanged.
Pre-registration for ITP Daniel Boone ATV
Championship is open now. Please visit
