BRP Success At Montreal Supercross
Can-Am DS 450 on Podium in its First Indoor Race
Valcourt, Quebec, October 1, 2007 – Can-Am is back on the podium at the Olympic Stadium. Greg Gee riding an Epic Racing-prepped DS 450TM ATV took second in the main event to put the CanAm name back on the Supercross map, thirty years after Jimmy Ellis' win on a CanAmTM 250 MX motocross bike at the first Montreal Supercross.
“This really was an emotional night for everyone at BRP,” said Bernard Guy, ATV marketing director, BRP. “Bringing the Can-Am brand back to this race means so much to those who worked hard on the DS 450 project; to take second and lead the race for a bit made the night even more special."
Both Gee and Sage Baker entered the Supercross, however, a first-turn pileup prevented Baker from challenging for the podium. Gee had a great race and rode his DS 450 quad flawlessly to a second-place finish.
