WPSA: Royal Distributing Bourque Polaris Racing Team Invades Duluth!

Royal Distributing Bourque Polaris Pro Xtreme Team

The Royal Distributing Bourque Polaris Pro Xtreme Team travelled to Duluth, Minnesota to race in the WPSA opening round as a warm-up to the CSRA season this past weekend.

The team had some very solid results and is excited to build on them. Team Royal's first on-track action of 2007-08 saw Royal Distributing's Stephanie Simard notch a first, second and fourth leading in the final, where she lead most of the race enroute to a victory in Women's Sport Super Stock.

Dave Joanis also had stellar results in his heats with two thirds and a second. Dave is showing his speed is there and he is ready to attack the Semi-Pro championship in Canada, beginning December 7th-9th at Searchmount Resort near Sault Ste. Marie.

Lee Butler, Team Royal-Bourque's Pro Rider, showed he could ride with the best in the world, as he holeshotted a Pro Open qualifier and lead for over half the race. Finally, defending WPSA champion Ross Martin snuck by, Lee held on to finish second and the whole team fed off the excitement.

Lee's results all weekend exceeded the team's expectations in the super-competitive WPSA Pro classes. Lee proved that his Bourque tuned Polaris will be ultra fast in the CSRA pro classes this year and a force for the Championship.

See everyone next week at the CSRA opener in Searchmount! We hear track prep is going very well and the racing should be exciting!

Royal Distributing Factory Recreation Ski-Doo Team

Joey Sagan and the Royal Distributing Factory Recreation Ski-Doo Team used the Duluth WPSA national as a warm-up to the CSRA season and gained some good insight into the new chassis XP Rev’s this past weekend.

Joey struggled a little bit with the setup on the new XP sleds, as many of the Ski-Doo teams did. Joey soldiered on to some good midpack finishes with the top US teams and learned a tonne about the new XP, we are very excited to get going with the new sled up in Canada. Joey kicks off the CSRA Pro Season on December 7th at Searchmount Resort. The team feels ready and up to the challenge.

“I’m so stoked to get going on this season, the new XP sleds are awesome and I feel great. What we’ve learned at Duluth is going to help us a tonne going into next weekend," Joey commented.

See you all at Searchmount ! The weather is great and the track is coming together nicely, its gonna be a very exciting season with really close racing! Watch for the #202 XP Rev’s in the Pro Classes!
