Australia, February, 2009 – Exciting young talent, Chad McKay, has signed with BRP and Can-Am for the 2009 racing season. Having started racing just four seasons ago, Chad has already achieved some great wins and finished 3rd in the 2008 Nationals.
Competing in the Senior Pro Open class, Chad will be riding on the most race ready and reliable quad on the market, the DS450X mx. "I look forward to building a strong relationship with Can Am and will be putting a lot of hard training on and off the bike for this year. With the strong, fast and reliable Can-Am DS450X mx, and the support that the team are giving, I believe we can have a really successful season".
Building on the same industry-leading attributes as the base DS 450, the mx model boasts a line up of additional features that make it the most race ready ATV in the industry. Powered by a proven 449cc EFI Rotax engine, the mx provides the lowest unsprung weight, most power and most mass centralization in its class. Racers will also be pleased they will not have to buy expensive aftermarket A-arms and steering stems with the stock features meeting the recognized standard for motorcross racing. The mx also features race-bred suspension, high performance pro tires and anti-vibe steering stem.
