Amateur Motocross
The Millcreek Spring Classic in Arizona and the GNC International Finals in Decatur, Texas, are week-long events during which amateur motocross racers come from all over the world to test themselves against the very best in their class.
Both of these events have hosted countless factory riders who have gone on to become motocross and supercross champions.
Riding the 2011 line of Suzuki RM-Z’s and the RM85, including the new fuel-injected RM-Z250, the Rockstar Suzuki Amateur Team was once again dominant on the podium with championships in almost every class.
Jeremy Martin stood out as he swept all B classes at the Spring Classic and won 2-out-of-4 at the GNC.
Jennifer Burton captured her first championship at her very first event aboard a Suzuki RM-Z250 at the Spring Classic. And in the GNC’s, Michael Mosiman took his Suzuki RM85 to the 85 7-11 Stock Championship while Rockstar Suzuki teammate Sean Cantrell powered his RM85 to the 85 7-11 Modified Title to sweep the 7-11 age group classes.
Brian Noah (Suzuki’s Motocross Support Specialist) says: “American Suzuki Motor Corporation is very pleased with our amateur results at these early 2011 events. We’re proud of all our riders and proud of the performance of the RM’s and RM-Z’s in all classes. With Suzuki riders earning 30 podiums at the very first event of the year I expect even more outstanding results in the coming months.”
The 2011 Rockstar Suzuki Amateur Team’s next event is the NMA World Mini GP in Mesquite NV on April 12-17.
