BRP EXPANDS ITS 2009 ATV CONTINGENCY PROGRAM
More Classes
And More Race Series Brings Total To $1.3
Million
Valcourt, Québec, February 24, 2009 – BRP is
pleased to announce an increase in its
already-extensive 2009 Can-Am™ ATV race
contingency program. This brings the total money
available to pro and amateur Can-Am racers to
more than $1.3 million USD making it the largest
ATV-only contingency program in the history of
ATV racing. The latest race series to be added
is the American Woods Racing Championship Series
(AWRCS) with a total contingency amount of
$58,000 across seven classes in all 10 rounds.
With contingency dollars already available in
the GNCC, AMA ATV Motocross, CMRC, ITP Quadcross,
WORCS, SCORE, Best in the Desert, NEATV-MX, PAMX
and OMA, Can-Am covers every major national and
regional ATV championship in North America.
“This reinforces our commitment to the sport
and illustrates our effort to reward racers who
commit to Can-Am,” says Del Bohlman, Racing
Manager for Can-Am ATVs at BRP. “We made a
concerted effort to cover all the major series
across North America and cover every Can-Am
product from Outlander™ to Renegade™ to DS
450™."
In addition, Can-Am recently announced the
2009 Can-Am X-Team DS 450 Racer Support Program,
which allows a racer to get unprecedented access
to factory support. To be eligible for the
$3,000-plus in benefits, a racer much purchase a
new or unused 2008 or 2009 Can-Am DS 450 EFI ATV
within the program timeframe and apply through a
participating Can-Am dealer. Full details of the
program can be found in the contingency section
of the Can-Am X-Team Web site.

contingency schedules, please visit the Can-Am

racers will also find updated race news and
