Outlaw podiums in First and Third

Minneapolis, May 7, 2008 –The Outlaw 525 IRS is seeing successes abroad. In the recent Dakar Series, the Outlaw 525 IRS finished on the podium in First and Third place.

The race, which took place in Hungary and Romania, consisted of extremely difficult terrain which proved no match for the Independent Rear Suspension of the Outlaw 525 IRS. France’s Hubert Deltrieu won the race aboard his Outlaw 525 IRS, two weeks after winning the prestigious Lybia Desert Challenge. Along with Deltrieu’s Outlaw, five other Outlaw 525 IRS ATVs were amongst the 18 starters, with all six finishing within the top 11. The Overall Lady win went to Camelia Liparoti of Italy who also piloted an Outlaw 525 IRS.
