Winnipeg,
MB - BOSS Racing has announced
the signing of Swedish snocross champion, Petter Narsa, as lead Pro for Team
Jimmy John's during the 2012-2013 snocross season.
Narsa represents the best in talent in the snocross industry
and is a testimony to the growing pool of gifted snocross athletes emerging in
northern Europe. In spite of his young
age, 19 year-old Narsa already holds several prestigious titles including
Swedish Stadium-Cross Champion and Swedish Snowcross Champion. Narsa recently
took home the silver medal behind industry icon Tucker Hibbert during the 2012
FIM World Cup after leading for three-quarters of the race.
While Narsa's accomplishments are many, his most recent
success was a Gold medal at the International Clash de Nations where he beat
out the 2012 North American ISOC year-end champion Tim Tremblay for the title
in Falun, Sweden on March 24.
His international acclaim is rising as Narsa was recently
nominated for "best performance last season" in the 2012 Northern Swedish
Sports Gala. This prestigious European event is recognized as "the sport
world's own Oscar gala."
"As a team we are committed to advancing the sport of
snocross and bringing the best talent to compete in the world's top events,"
BOSS Racing's Garry Querel said. "Petter Narsa has a distinguished career and
we are eager to support his hard work and continue to push the envelope of
what is possible in the exciting arena of snocross."
In Europe, Narsa is a factory rider for LYNX snowmobiles, a
division of Bombardier Recreational Products and parent company of Ski-Doo-the
OEM factory and linchpin of industry support for Team Jimmy John's/BOSS Racing.
Narsa also shares a tie with Scott, the helmet and goggle sponsor of the Team
Jimmy John's this season.
