Team Dunlop Elite Riders Ready To Rock 2018
Buffalo, NY: Team
Dunlop Elite alumni have invaded the top ranks of professional
racing. Eli Tomac, Blake Baggett, Aaron Plessinger, Adam
Cianciarulo, Joey Savatgy, Austin Forkner, RJ Hampshire-that's the
short list of champions and championship contenders who came
through the Team Dunlop amateur program, and
there are more to come.
Many of the country's top amateur riders have been selected over
the past twelve years to be part of the Team Dunlop Elite program,
and this year brings another crop of talented amateurs who are one
step closer to the pro ranks. For 2018, the Team Dunlop Elite
lineup consists of 14 riders who will receive special tire support,
preferred service at select races, plus advertising and promotional
opportunities in national media and on the Team Dunlop website.
These riders will compete at top amateur motocross nationals all
across the country, beginning with Daytona, in classes ranging from
50cc to Super Mini.
New to the team this year is 10-year-old Kade Johnson, competing in
the 65cc and 85cc classes, and 14-year-old Tayler Allred, who will
complete for the women's championship. They join 12 other riders on
the Elite team, including Jett
Reynolds, Ryder
DiFrancesco, Matthew
Leblanc, Haiden
Deegan, Daxton
Bennick, Nick
Romano, Hunter
Yoder, Casey
Cochran, Max Vohland,
Caden
Braswell, Crockett
Myers, and Seth
Dennis.

support, making it to the top of the profession is within their
grasp."
