BRP Wins Big In 2009 ATV Race Season

Can-Am ATV racers and teams took home multiple championships and wins in the 2009 ATV racing season. In all, Can-Am factory-supported racers took home seven regional and national championships across North America, while members of the Can-Am X-Team and DS 450 Racer Support Program took home an additional 14 (and counting) championships!

In the Grand National Cross-Country championship, our Team Warnert / Can-Am racers swept all four 4x4 class championships winning the 4x4 Open, 4x4 Limited, 4x4 Lites and U2 championships all on Can-Am ATVs. In all, the Can-Am Outlander 800R had two of those championships (including a perfect 13 for 13 season in the 4x4 Limited class), the Outlander 500 the Lites championship and the Can-Am Renegade 800R the U2 class championship.

A major highlight for the Can-Am DS 450 this racing season was a win at the Montreal Supercross in front of thousands of fans at Montreal's Olympic Stadium. The Team Motoworks / Can-Am DS 450 took three of the top four spots in the race including the win in the main event. It was a great night as one of the first goals for the DS 450 project was to win this important race.

In the ITP Quadcross motocross series, Team Motoworks / Can-Am took the Open Pro-class championship on the Can-Am DS 450. This was a hard-fought and competitive championship race all season long and everyone on the team was excited to take the year-end points battle. Also out west, Motoworks also had the World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS) Pro-Am championship on the DS 450.

In Canada, the Can-Am DS 450 saw success on the national level, taking the prestigious Canada Cup Pro ATV championship! In addition, the Can-Am DS 450 Amateur Racer Support program yielded at least a dozen championships in regional series across the United States. There are more reports of championships coming in, so if you know of a racer in the program who earned a championship on his or her DS 450, please let us know.
