Yamaha Launches ATV / UTV bLU cRU Racing Support Program
Championship Bonuses Slated for 2017 ATV and Side-by-Side Racers
Yamaha just launched a new ATV / UTV bLU cRU Racing Support Program committing a potential total payout of $100,000 in race win bonuses for ATV and UTV racers competing in select classes and series aboard Yamaha’s 2016 or newer YXZ1000R and YFZ450R models.
“Yamaha’s bLU cRU has been a very popular Supercross, motocross and off-road motorcycle racing program, and we’re excited to expand it to ATV and SxS racers this year,” said Donnie Luce, Yamaha ATV / Off-Road Racing Coordinator.
Racers can register online at www.YamahabLUcRU.com to sign up and apply for bLU cRU benefits. Once approved, racers will receive a reloadable Yamaha bLU cRU debit card and $45 credit on their www.bLUcRUswag.com account for bLU cRU apparel. These racers will also be eligible for championship bonuses paid directly to their bLU cRU debit card.
