Monster Energy Kawasaki’s
ATV Racing Team Poised for Success
Irvine, CA (1/23/2008) - With two
seasons of racing under its belt on the Kawasaki
KFX®450R, the Monster Energy Kawasaki ATV Racing
Team is looking to have its best season yet in 2009.
The Monster Energy Kawasaki ATV Racing team returns
to the competitive AMA ATV National Motocross
Series with a two-man team looking for the Kawasaki’s
first-series win. Returning for his third year,
Josh Creamer has been a key component to improving
the Kawasaki race machine. Last year he earned
four podium finishes, including one moto win aboard
the KFX450R. He knows what it takes to win and
is very eager to be on top of the podium.
New to the team in 2009 is Chad Wienen, the 2008
AMA Pro ATV Open winner and an AMA ATV race winner.
Wienen healed from injury during the 2008 season
and came back to dominate the last several races
in the series, including the ATV Open win at Steel
City Raceway. Wienen’s drive to constantly
improve and see results fits perfect within the
Kawasaki racing philosophy.
“Chad and Josh are great friends on and
off the track and have always pushed each other
to higher levels of performance,” said Team
Green™ Manager Reid Nordin. “I can
only see that increasing now that they are teammates.
Chad possesses great finesse on the track and
knows how to race from a strategic standpoint.
Josh knows how to push the limits of the KFX450R
and has a never-quit attitude. The two are shaping
up to be a great fit for the 2009 season.”

Along with competing in the AMA ATV National
Motocross Series, Kawasaki will be backing its
commitment in other ATV series’, particularly
in the WORCS and New England ATV Series’
(NEATV).
The DATS Racings team will be back for its third
season in the WORCS ATV Series. The team already
has one championship in the ProAm class and is
looking to add to that in 2009. In the NEATV,
Joe Haavisto brought Kawasaki two championships
in 2008 in the Pro and Pro-Am classes and is looking
to make it back to back championships in 2009.
In just a short amount of time, the Monster Energy
Kawasaki ATV Racing Team is poised to be one of
the top teams. The steady improvement from its
inception shows the dedication every team member
has to winning.
