Suttos Motorex KTM Racing Team 2008

Suttos Motorex KTM Racing team has stamped its presence in the Australian motocross season, with an impressive eight rider lineup. Penrith based Sutto’s dealer principal Chris Sutton has, in conjunction with primary sponsors KTM Australia and Motorex, demonstrated their commitment to motocross in both Senior and Junior ranks uitilising the complete range of the Austrian marque. Also supporting Suttos Motorex KTM Racing are the ever present Shift, Fox, Alpinestar, Dunlop, and Scott.

The team for this season utilizes a mix of youth and experience with ex factory racer Paul Grant aboard the 450SXF in the Pro class, and Kody and Dale Wheeler ready to stamp their presence with the 250SXF.

Young Dale Fear takes a dual role aboard the 85SX and 125SX two strokes in their respective classes. The 85SX and 65SX will give Elias Dukes plenty of horsepower to continue his impressive results from last season, with his brother Dylan also on a 65SX. Youngest brother Riley, and his cousin Bryson will be racing on the class dominant 50SX.

There is a long list of titles and place getters amongst the team from local, State, and National competition. 2008 is targeted to extend this list, and team Suttos Motorex KTM Racing Team Manager Danial Lindsay is confident that they have the right mix to achieve results. “This year’s team is a demonstration of Suttos Motorcycle Supply commitment to the KTM brand. Having all the MX models represented is evidence of this, and is a big plus for our dealership.

“Development is a key strategy for the team, and having the experience of Paul, through to the youth of Bryson and Riley, assures not only team Suttos Motorex KTM Racing of a rewarding season, but aims to provide continued depth to Australian motocross.”

“We will be providing rider coaching, bike setup tips, product testing, and general assistance to all interested KTM riders. We have a hectic year ahead, and a lot of kilometers to be racked up travelling the country, but it’s an exciting time for Sutto’s”

This year the team will race the NSW Stadium MX events, Amcross, Supercross, and Open meetings, with the State and National MX titles being the season focus. The 2008 season starts with the Qeanbeyan Stadium Motocross on Saturday January 12.
