ROCK MAPLE RACING NAMED
FIRST POWERSPORTS ATV TOUR AFFILIATE;
WILL RUN REGIONAL ATV RACING IN THE NORTHEAST
UNITED STATES
WHITE BEAR LAKE, Minn. (Aug. 18, 2006) —
Longtime WPSA Snocross affiliate Rock Maple
Racing (RMR) has signed an affiliate agreement
with the PowerSports ATV Tour to run regional
ATV races in the Northeast. The Rock Maple
Can-Am Series ran its first race last weekend in
Canaan, N.H. and has five more events scheduled
for the 2006 season.
RMR becomes the first regional affiliate for
the PowerSports ATV Tour. The regional series
features racing in both QuadMX and QuadTerrain
Challenge in 30 Amateur and Pro Am classes.
“We’re excited to welcome Rock Maple Racing
to the PowerSports ATV Tour,” said PowerSports
Entertainment, Inc. CEO Rick Murphy. “RMR has
been a valued partner for many years in Snocross
and we’re pleased to see it become our first
regional ATV affiliate. We envision RMR as the
first of many regional affiliates throughout
North America.
“One of our goals as a National Championship
Tour is to build a vibrant ladder system which
allows riders to progress,” added Murphy. “Our
regional tours will give riders a place to hone
their skills close to home, netting them the
necessary experience to run with the best of the
best in ATV racing on our National Tour.”
“We
have a strong Snocross affiliation, so
partnering with the WPSA on the ATV side was a
natural step for us as a regional tour,” said
Tara Saxton, RMR Director. “We have an exciting
schedule in both New Hampshire and
Massachusetts; a schedule we plan to expand into
other states throughout the Northeast in future
years. Our first race was a huge success, and
we’re looking forward to more of the same.”
