Fairfax, VA. – The USGPRU is proud to welcome Pilot USA as the official class sponsor for the 125GP class. Over the years, Pilot has sponsored some of the biggest names in the AMA paddock. Championship winning riders such as Scott Russell, Doug Chandler, Doug Polen, Ben Spies and many other top racers have worn Pilot leathers. In addition to top-quality racing leathers, Pilot is leading the cutting edge in the manufacture of corporate, fan, and team apparel. The USGPRU always enjoys adding new sponsors to our already strong line-up of industry supporters, but when it’s a company that’s been in the industry as long as Pilot, it’s just a little bit more rewarding. For 2009, Pilot will be awarding leather suits, body armor, and other racing gear to racers in the USGPRU 125GP National Championship® races across the country. “With a good mix of adult and youth riders that are up and coming, the USGPRU 125GP class is a great place for Pilot to further establish its name as one of the premier makers of professional race leathers, armor and team apparel” said Pilot USA president Josh Bennett. “We look forward to a long and successful relationship with the USGPRU.” About USGPRU The USGPRU is the officially recognized Motorcycle 125 Grand Prix National Championship ®, 250 Grand Prix National Championship TM series, and Moriwaki MD250H youth racing series.
