SUPERTRAPP SUPPORTS XTREME ICE RACING AS OFFICIAL EXHAUST SPONSOR
22 December 2004 - SuperTrapp Industries, Inc.

SuperTrapp Industries has been named the official exhaust sponsor of the AMA Extreme International Ice Racing Series (XIIR).

The XIIR is a series of 14 motorcycle and ATV races held in hockey arenas throughout the United States from December 30, 2004 to February 26, 2005.

SuperTrapp provides all 32 professional ice racers in the series with its universal 4” racing mufflers. Because of the substantial power boost provided by SuperTrapp’s tunable disc technology, all racers are required to equip their bikes with a SuperTrapp exhaust so that no racer has an unfair advantage.

“The SuperTrapp mufflers are a perfect fit for ice racing because with so much speed and no brakes, throttle control is key. The tunability of the SuperTrapp mufflers allow us to fine tune the power of these machines for different levels at different speeds so it hits when we need it to hit,” said Anthony Barlow, champion ice racer and organizer of the XIIR.

According to Barlow, the SuperTrapp systems allow for such fine control of power that they are often re-tuned between each heat and the main to account for an increasing track size as the number of participating riders increases. Because all races are held indoors, the ability to control sound levels is another important factor, said Barlow. The high-speed events feature 500 cc methanol-burning Speedway motorcycles and performance ATVs, equipped with studded tires, speeding around the tight track of a hockey arena. Two open ATV classes will be featured at every race.

“Ice racing fans enjoy the fast action and spectacular crashes,” said Ted Bradley, race coordinator for SuperTrapp. “Every one of the racers and organizers are very passionate about the sport of ice racing. They put on an exciting show for the fans and represent our product with a high level of professionalism. We are privileged to be on board with the XIIR series in 2005.”
