A change
for 2010 will be the return of Darly
Rath on an Outlaw 450 MXR
|
"We have a lot to be proud of and worked
hard to get those results. We took a brand
new bike and finished top three, it is amazing
what can be done with good people behind you
and supporting your drive to win. There will
be no off-season for us as we are already
testing and make additional improvements for
2010," said Rath.
Cody Anderson also enjoyed his first year
as a cross country contender on a Sportsman
850 and was happy about the opportunity. Anderson
will be returning to his MX roots as well
and will return to an Outlaw 450 MXR to compete
in the regional series along with a select
number of AMA Nationals.
"It allowed me to experience something
new and different and though I am going to
return back to the Polaris Rath MX Team for
2010, it was a great experience," said
Anderson.
Another change for the team in 2010 will
be the return of Rath on an Outlaw 450 MXR
for some non-GNCC conflicting cross country
races in select series.
"I have always been one to race many
different types of ATVs and I still enjoy
challenging myself by racing all across the
board. It is one of the best ways to cross
train which helps me stay on top of the game."
stated Rath. " We are excited to bring
almost all of our same sponsors back for 2010,
a consistent program with consistent partners
plays a major role in success."
"I'm extremely impressed with the accomplishments
of the team this year. It is not easy to take
a whole new quad and make it competitive the
first year out and the success with the Outlaw
450 MXR and Sportsman 850XP with EPS in several
different venues is a great testament to the
work and dedication of the Rath team,"
said Eric Nault, race team manager for Polaris.
"With how much has been accomplished
in 2009, 2010 should be an excellent race
year for the Factory Polaris Rath Duro Team."
