SSR (Steven Squire Racing) is pleased to announce its partnership with Spykes KTM and DQ Tuned to compete in the 2013 AMSOIL GNCC XC2 Pro Lites class as well as the AMA National MAXC series. Squire, who comes from a motocross background, has spent the last two years learning the ropes of off-road racing and is focused on the MAXC and GNCC XC2 Pro Lites Championships for 2013.

“I am really excited to be working with such awesome people again this season. DQ has always been at my side through everything, so it will be similar to what he has always done for me, as my mechanic and crew leader; just now that he is building his own company, he is bringing more to the table as a sponsor as well. Spykes KTM has also really stepped it up this year which helped out my program drastically, providing me with the equipment necessary to win races. Along with my racing, the three of us share the same focus on helping the future of our sport, the youth. We have a lot in the works for the upcoming season and I think it's going to be a breakout year for all of us! We look forward to a ton of racing, great results, a lot of fun, and promoting the world of Off-Road Racing!" said and enthusiastic Steven Squire.

"Spykes KTM is thrilled to be working with Steven Squire for the 2013 season. We worked with Steven during the 2012 season by assisting with bikes and parts, but due to limited resources we mostly took care of Stevens needs at the local level. As of February 16th, 2013 we are under new ownership by the Brinn family and this great change has allowed me to make the decision to step up to the plate. Steven and his mechanic David Quillen have gone above and beyond to help with the growth of Spykes KTM so one of our first priorities was to give back to them and form a larger bond which we have accomplished by bringing David on as a full time tech and trackside support manager. The merger of the three parties (SSR, DQ Tuned, & Spykes KTM) has paved the road to unlimited possibilities!”

"I’m really excited for what we can do with the new opportunities presented to us this year to help riders compete at all levels of the sport. With the new partnership between Spykes KTM and DQ Tuned we will be able to offer riders and racers a one-stop headquarters for all your bike sales, service, and parts. We will also be offering trackside support at select MAXC, IXCR, MWXC, and GNCC races throughout the season. I would like to thank the Brinn family of Spykes KTM and Steven Squire for the opportunity to work with them for the 2013 season,” said DQ Tuned’s David Quillen.

After being honored by the MAXC series for Sportsmanship of the Year Award for 2012, SSR and DQ Tuned have teamed up again for 2013 to help promote the up-and-coming series. SSR/DQ Tuned will be the title sponsor for the PeeWee and Youth class races for the entire season and Spykes KTM is also a series sponsor of the MAXC. You will be able to find SSR and DQ Tuned on Vendor row at all of the MAXC races.

Look for the #895 Spykes KTM 250 SX on the XC2 row at the GNCC season opener at River Ranch, FL next Tuesday, March 12th.
