Girardi Holeshot Award for AMA EnduroCross
| | | Getting to the first turn in the EX Pro class main event at GEICO Powersports AMA EnduroCross rounds just got a whole lot more interesting as investment expert and off road racing enthusiast Mike Girardi of Girardi Wealth Management Group has stepped up and sponsored the $500 Girardi Holeshot Award for all six of the upcoming 2009 EnduroCross rounds.
Opening at Las Vegas ’ Orleans Arena on Saturday, July 25th, GEICO Powersports AMA EnduroCross, the six-round series features many of the world’s top off road, enduro, hare and hound, scramble, motocross and trials racers and riders. Getting to the first turn first is important in all motorsports and Girardi, who himself rides, is looking to reward those riders who have what it takes to put it all on the line at the start in order to pull that all-important holeshot.
“It is truly a pleasure and an honor to be associated with this great event,” said Girardi. “One of my greatest passions is off road riding and racing, so it’s very thrilling for me not only to be a sponsor, but especially so to be offering the holeshot award at every event this year. Endurocross is by far and away the most exciting off road venue in the country!”
Note! Special ticket and hotel rates available for the OPENING ROUND, July 25th, in Las Vegas are NOW available at the Orleans Arena, 888-234-2334; or online at www.OrleansArena.com
