I was wondering if anyone has seen the new Team Yamaha race quads. I'm most interested in what the new YZ250-powered quad looks like.

Also, when is the first GNCC race? Does the season start in the summer?

 

This sounds like a fish hook, I'll bite. Where did you hear that Yamaha would have a race team?

 

A couple people posted that Yamaha was forming a GNCC team awhile ago. They said Yamaha will race a banshee, warrior, wolverine, and a YZ250 quad. Isn't this true?

 

I believe I read the same thing about yamaha in one of my last magazine issuses... All it said that Yamaha would have a cross country team for the year 2000 to compete against Kawasaki. Then it said they was working on a 250 quad. But when I was at the GNC TT races in Orrivle Ohio last year they annouced that in 2001 most of the top companies would have quad race teams. They was told this at a meeting in Las Vegas.... This was from the people at fast track promotions who told that info.

yam is suppose to have a team to compete with kawa but now i hear no more kawa team also the yz250 prototype is true they want something to compete in pro250 gnc class besides the 4 stroke

 

Where did you hear that Kawi isn't having a 2000 team? That is just the opposite of what I heard, or actually read, over at ATVsport.

I doubt that Yamaha will race the GNCs, just the GNCCs. What four-stroke are you talking about? I will believe that YZF quad when I see it.

Thanks for the replies.

 

Kawasaki is without a doubt is sticking with the team. I do doubt that they will have a GNC team

Kawasaki is having a 2000 Team. Maxxis, Supertrapp, and some others are already bragging about being sponsors on their '00 Team, as well as Chevy.

I think it's great that they are getting GNCC racing. GNC would be nice too, but I don't think it would be as benefitial to them, both R&D wise, and sales. Most people are in the woods or trails.

Can't wait to see them though, I am hoping this leads to a further developed Warrior. Should also give a nice spec sheet for Banshee guys that want to run in woods to go by too.
