KORY ELLIS RIDES ITP HOLESHOTS TO QUADCROSS
TITLE
Kory Ellis finished his full-time racing career
with the 2007 ITP/Yamaha QuadCross Championship. |
Yamaha once again gave away a race-prepped
YFZ450. This big winner this year was Mary
Roache, who accepted the prize on behalf of son
Justin Roache, a dedicated QuadCross Series
competitor. |
Kory Ellis finished his long ATV racing
career in style by dominating the 2007
ITP/Yamaha QuadCross Series. Riding a
Yoshimura-backed Suzuki LT-R450 fitted with ITP
Holeshot tires, the 30-year-old Murrietta,
California, resident rode to victory in five of
the series’ 11 events and made four other
top-three podium appearances to easily claim the
title over three-time QuadCross champion Jeremy
Schell. Ellis managed this performance despite
breaking a foot midway through the season. Ellis
takes his number one plate into retirement, as
he will be stepping away from full-time racing
in 2008 to concentrate on his in-house career
with Yoshimura.
ITP and Yamaha will once again be presenting
the QuadCross Series in 2008, with a full
schedule of events throughout the southwest U.S.
as well as another season-ending drawing for a
tricked-out Yamaha YFZ450. For more information,
