Riders competing in the 2008 ITP/Moose Racing AMA ATV Pro Motocross Nationals announced today that $200 will be awarded to the holeshot winner in each Pro moto during the 2008 season. Suspension Systems will sponsor the moto one holeshot award, while www.atvriders.com back the second moto holeshot award.
Owner and president of Suspension Systems, Kenny Hendrick, said: “We’re already going to be attending every round of the ITP/Moose Racing AMA Pro series so we wanted to do something to help draw some attention to our trackside support, while helping out the riders by offering $200 for the first moto holeshot. We service all of the OEM shocks and offer our own product called the 'C2P shock' that we urge all riders to try out.” Hendrick is a former employee of Richard Childress Racing where he built and maintained suspension pieces for drivers like two-time NASCAR Nationwide Series Champion and Chase for the Cup regular, Kevin Harvick.
Harlen Foley, president of www.atvriders.com, said: “We’re here to help the sport and the series grow. The riders competing in the ITP/Moose Racing AMA Pro series are the best riders in the world and we viewed the holeshot award as an opportunity to promote www.atvriders.com while supporting the riders.”
