T
he 2016 AMA EnduroCross

SRT has joined EnduroCross
to further broaden that aware-
ness. The series will kick off on
Saturday, August 27 in Atlanta,
Georgia, and fans will notice
several SRT-clad racers gun-
ning for top results.
"Craig Thompson, the owner
of SRT, has jumped in with
both feet to create an amazing
team of racers over the past
few years," said Lance Bryson,
Director of Sales and Market-
ing for EnduroCross. "And he
is always out there competing
in the Vet class to help develop
products. We love to have that
kind of enthusiasm for Endu-
roCross and we are proud to
have him join on as a sponsor."
"EnduroCross does a great
job showcasing the extreme
nature of off-road motorcycle
racing so this is a great place to
show off our products and de-
velop new items that protect the
bike or improve performance,"
said Craig Thompson, owner of
SRT. Find out more about SRT,
