From a press release issued by Yoyodyne:

Marvic Sponsorship for AMA Pro Racers

Magnesium World (Marvic Magnesium) and Yoyodyne have reached an agreement to support racers in the AMA Superbike and Formula Extreme classes in the 2003 championship series. This race support program is open to all racers with a current AMA Pro license. This race support program is designed with the privateer and small team as the top priority.

Marvic magnesium’s Piuma wheels in 16.5″ diameters will be available to racers who compete on Ducati, Suzuki GSXR 750 and 1000, Honda RC51 and 954, Yamaha R1, Kawasaki and Aprila’s Mille.

The Piuma is Marvic’s top of the line wheel. These wheels are the lightest cast magnesium wheels currently available, and lighter than forged aluminum wheels. These are the same lightweight wheels used by a top Ducati team in the USA, as well as the US Corona Suzuki team for their US Formula Extreme effort, and their Super Production bike that won at Suzuka.

Marvic’s North American importer, Yoyodyne, is handling the Race support program, as well as the contingency payout program. Pay out is to be structured so that the top Marvic equipped finishers will receive CASH at each AMA National event. Details will be released as the AMA schedule is finalized
