  |

Hi does anyone know if the team riders have been named yet for any teams participating in the "Pro" Quad Nationals 3 events for next year.
Rumours are that KTM have gone offshore for riders. What about CanAm, Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki

The three rounds with be for Pro Quads only to abe held over 3 rounds within the 2 Wheeler MX Nationals, One in WA and 2 in the Eastern States. Dates have yet to be confirmed through Series Promoters for the two wheelers. No other information available
I am sure they will be posted in the new year. |

april for NSW at coonabarbran and may for WA at Waneroo.
these will be the 2 rounds for pros and then the final round will be the ATV quad nationals at Maffra maybe august september. our Australian ATV pro champion will be decided over the points total for the 3 rounds.
i like the format and the exsposure Quads will get at the Rockstar MX rounds. will be great for the sport

| This will be excellent for our sport in Australia. It would just be shame if the manufacturers do go chasing riders from overseas. |

Its great that you get with the two wheelers but I think you'll find you will be riding on the Sauturday only and the coverage will be minimum. And the worst thing of all is to have it canned as the grid is only 50% full.
So ensure the word is out where you are from to get bums on seats on the line.

i have been told that the racing will be on tye sunday, also remember they don't race on saturdays at the mx nationals on sundays. both days at the final.
big thanks to Trudy Van Veilet and WEM for making this happen. your right lance we need a good size grid to make it happen.
and hopefully the bike companies get on board, i do know they are interested,
even if not it would be great to see a heap of riders forming teams and start supporting a long term approach to pro ATV racing

A few of us from QLD are trying to get together to see how we can make this happen. It is going to be a stretch financially for all who try and make all three rounds, but it will be well worth it for the sport of ATV Racing in Australia.
Like Roycroft said, it would be great if some big companies came on board for support next year, but the reality is, the current economic climate has everyone a little bit restrained when it comes to sponsorship. |

This is going to be awesome, especially for getting more interest in quads.
We'll see how many Colac motorcycles LTR's we can get out there! |

great for the sport if the numbers can be achieved. i'd encourage nathan to be in it but even between us we couldn't afford the cost, or the absence from employment to facilitate the travel.
any manufacturers reading this willing to supply and prepare and deliver a bike to each venue for nathan to ride?????? if so i'll fly him in and out  |

| No more movement on this front? Doesnt seem to be too many drastic changes for 2012 then? Would have been nice to see a few more manufacturers get on board to support this opportunity at the MX Nationals. |

I think there sitting on the fence to see where this goes and how much response they get from it and I'm sure they will jump on it next year. Only hope Kevin williams doesn't expect it to be huge straight away, I'm sure it will jump start quad racing in Australia to a new level. |
