Personal Info: Born February 21, 1987. Single. Dustin Wimmer was born in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, and now resides in Center Valley. One of the youngest ATV Pro MX champions, Wimmer’s success is due to equal parts riding skills and intense fitness. The 6-foot 3-inch tall Wimmer spends a good deal of time riding his road and mountain bicycles, both near his home and while on the road. And he relaxes with a not-so-physical round of golf. Biography: Wimmer began racing ATVs when he was 9 years old. He later raced hare scrambles on a Suzuki LT80 and just kept moving up from there. Wimmer paid his dues by competing in Pennsylvania's AMA District 6 events, through the youth classes and then B and A Classes. He entered his first National ATV race in Muddy Creek, Tenn., in 2000. He raced the air-cooled class that year, competing in just the last five rounds, and he still finished in 5th overall. Since that very race, Wimmer has entered every National ATV Race on the schedule. Racing Info: Dustin Wimmer began his ATV racing career at age 9, moving up to a Suzuki LT80, and graduating through the race classes with unmatched success. He joined the National Tour in 2000 midway through the season, and he was addicted. In 2001, Wimmer earned his first National Championship in the Open B class. The next season, Wimmer raced three different classes in both the MX series and the Tourist Trophy (TT) series, earning the Open A Championship in Motocross. Wimmer continued his championship run in 2003, earning National Titles in both the 250A and the 250 Pro Am classes. This level of success proved that Wimmer was ready to turn pro, and he did in 2004. One of the youngest pros on the circuit, Wimmer was still able to compete near the top and finish 4th overall for the season. The 2005 season was more difficult for Wimmer, and he finished ninth overall in the Pro class. In 2006, 19-year-old Wimmer was runner-up to Doug Gust in the WPSA ATV MX series, and Suzuki quickly signed him to the factory team. He earned second-place overall again in 2007 in his first year aboard the Suzuki QuadRacer R450. In 2008, Wimmer returned to his title-winning form, as he captured the ATV MX Pro championship. His racing talent and hard work in the off-season led him to back-to-back championships, again clinching the title in 2009 in the AMA ATV MX Championship series. Dustin’s 2010 campaign will be his fourth year on the Rockstar Makita Suzuki team. |
