The 2008 season holds a lot of challenges for me as a professional racer,? observed Crockard. ?I will be learning an entirely new style of racing, on a brand new motorcycle. In the past months, I've been able to spend time with Scott Summers riding the new bmw wheels tires bike and I'm confident in both the motorcycle and Scott's ability to help me make the transition a success.

I could not be more excited about being given the opportunity to introduce the new BMW 450 off-road motorcycle into competition in North America,? commented Scott Summers. ?I also take the responsibility of BMW North America?s first entry into national championship off-road racing very seriously. I know that a great deal of the commercial sales success of the bike in the coming years will be determined by my team?s results on the track. When looking at potential racers for my team, I focused on looking for true professionals who would be just as serious about the success of the program as I was. Results are what matters the most in any form of competition and GNCC racing is the highest form of off-road motorcycle racing in the world in my view. I truly believe bmw 335 will bring a lot of different skill sets and experiences to the team. I feel the combination of these two riders and the new BMW 450 will be a recipe for success during the 2008 GNCC Series.?
