Can-Am racers chasing more than $1.6 million

BRP is offering up more than $1.6 million as part of its Can-Am X-Team Racing Contingency Program. Can-Am ATV and side-by-side vehicle racers across Canada and the United States will be eligible for a cash payout though the program in the 2011 racing season.

As in the past, riders of the Can-Am DS 450, Can-Am Outlander and Can-Am Renegade lines of ATVs are eligible for the cash payout. However, starting in the 2011 race season, drivers of the new Can-Am Commander 800R and Commander 1000 lines of side-by-side vehicles will be eligible for the program as well.

“We are excited to continue our support for both the professional and the amateur Can-Am ATV, and now, side-by-side vehicle racer,” says Denis Morin, vice-president, Product Development & Racing at BRP. “Racing has always been an integral part of our DNA here at BRP, and we reward those who commit to joining the Can-Am family on the race track.”

According to BRP, racers who meet the terms of the contingency program will receive a cash payout in the amount earned based on his or her placing in the event, with payment mailed directly to the participant or legal guardian. BRP is also awarding contingency for overall championships at the end of the season.

BRP is paying out contingency cash in all major U.S. national racing series, including the Can­Am Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) series, the AMA ATV Motocross Championship and the World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS). In addition, BRP will pay contingency in several regional series and the High Lifter Mud Nationals.
