Rancho Cucamonga, CA: Dunlop Motorcycle Tires have extended its official tire support for American Flat Track (AFT) racing once again and is continuing the successful Team Dunlop Elite Flat Track program to support amateur racers and continue to include minibike racers.

In addition to being the official tire of AFT for the seventh straight year, Dunlop will continue to develop its Team Dunlop Elite Flat Track program.

“Dunlop’s support of amateur racing is unparalleled in the United States,” said Mike Buckley, Dunlop Sr. Vice President of Sales/Marketing. ” We expect the Team Dunlop Flat Track Elite program will assist riders in their journey to the professional ranks, just as the motocross alumni have over the years.”

This year, Jess Reynolds who was a part of the program since its inaugural year has graduated out of the program and is on her way toward her American Flat Track professional racing debut, as a Team Dunlop Elite Alumni. She will join the ranks of other Team Dunlop Flat Track Elite alumni, including Chase Saathoff, Logan McGrane, Billy Ross, and many more.

Like the Team Dunlop Elite motocross program, the Team Dunlop Flat Track Elite program includes select amateur racers who will receive unique benefits and support on and off the track. In addition to the Elite riders, any amateur flat track racer can apply for tire discounts through teamdunlop.com.

Joining the Team Dunlop Flat Track Elite 8 rider selection this year will be Jack Brucks and Meg Greimel. Brucks won his classes at the AMA Amateur National Championship while Greimel is one of the top respected up-and-coming women racers. They will line up with returning Elite team riders Dominic DeMario, Evan Renshaw, Bradon Pfanders, Adam Costan, Colton Shafer, and Braxton Ragan. Ragan, Shafer, Greimel and Brucks will continue to prove the performance of the new 17” DT4!

Team Dunlop was formed 17 years ago to help amateur motocross racers obtain tire support and receive more exposure so they could chase their goal of becoming pro riders. Today, the Team Dunlop Elite amateur motocross program has successfully helped many riders make a transition to the professional ranks, including Eli Tomac, Adam Cianciarulo, Chase Sexton, Justin Barcia, Ashley Fiolek, Justin Bogle, Jessy Nelson, Austin Forkner, and Joey Savatgy among others.

“We are very excited to continue with the Team Dunlop Elite Flat Track amateur program” said Rob Fox, Dunlop Amateur Motocross/Flat Track Support Manager. “We know all the Elite riders will represent the Dunlop brand the best way possible, on and off the track. With more Team Dunlop Elite alumni racing at the pro level, it really proves how influential our program has been over the past few years!”
