"We've been doing a bunch of testing and
things just seem to be getting better and better"
Wimmer said from the top step of the victory
podium. "We have the fastest motors, Fox
is doing a great job with our shocks, and the
Suzuki QuadRacer R450 is just plain awesome."
Team Rockstar / MSR / Suzuki / Yoshimura /
Pro Taper Team Manager Kory Ellis said: "I
don't know how, but the Suzuki QuadRacers just
keep getting better... the new model has an
even more powerful engine and the suspension
is great. The Suzukis and our riders look like
the ones to beat... It's the best possible way
to start a season."
