Rockstar Energy Suzuki To Run Suzuki 250 Race Program In Expanded Suzuki Racing Efforts For 2011



Corona, Calif. – August 3, 2010 – Rockstar Energy
Suzuki is pleased to announce they will be Suzuki's 250-class racing
team in both the AMA Supercross and Motocross series for 2011, with
increased support from Rockstar Energy Drink, American Suzuki Motor
Corporation, and Yoshimura R&D of America. Rockstar, Suzuki, and
Yoshimura are driven to pass on the success they have enjoyed with Ryan
Dungey and the RM-Z450 to the Lites class and the RM-Z250, and that’s
where Rockstar Energy Suzuki comes in. 


The Rockstar Energy Suzuki team will be running Suzuki's 250-class
racing efforts under the continued supervision of Bill Keefe. Bill is
looking forward to the expanded program for next year: "We are excited
about Suzuki's corporate commitment to the 250 class. The RM-Z250 has a
very strong motor with exceptional handling, and we plan on winning in
2011. Rockstar is the premier brand in energy drinks and a great
partner for our racing efforts. Like us, they are fully committed to
Supercross and Motocross."


"We've had a lot of success with Ryan Dungey and the RM-Z450
motorcycle," Yoshimura Vice President Don Sakakura said. "We feel it
will once again be the bike, rider, and team to beat moving forward
into the 2011 season. We feel that the same success will transfer to
the 250 efforts. Rockstar has become an integral part of Suzuki racing,
and we are very happy to continue the relationship and winning
tradition."


Rockstar Energy Drink Marketing Director Mike Kelso was also
enthusiastic about the increased support: "The addition of the 250
Rockstar Energy Suzuki team to this level completes our step-up program
throughout the sport. From amateur, to elite amateur, to the 250, and
finally the 450 class of professional motocross racing, Rockstar is
supporting all platforms."


The expanded support for the 250 class will round out an impressive
stable of contenders for 2011. With additional staffing and support,
this Suzuki team should be tough to beat when the gate drops in Anaheim
next January.
