From a press release:

American Suzuki Motor Corp. (ASMC) today announced the inaugural Worldwide GSX-R Cup Final to be held September 14, 2002 at Magny-Cours, France. Racers participating in American Suzuki’s 2002 Suzuki Cup contingency program wil be able to qualify for this event and compete against other Suzuki road racers from around the world on identically-prepared Suzuki GSX-R750s.

Three Worldwide GSX-R Cup qualifying rounds will be held in the U.S. for 750 Superstock/Supersport races in conjunction with existing Suzuki Cup regional events. American Suzuki will provide the winner of each qualifying event with airfare and accommodations, as well as for the mechanic or his or her choice. A new GSX-R750 will also be provided to use throughout the Worldwide GSX-R Cup event in France.

In addition, riders at each qualifying event will receive double Suzuki Cup points, which are used to determine the first two rows of the starting grid at the Suzuki Cup Finals at Road Atlanta, October 23-27, 2002.

For 17 years running Suzuki has been able to provide both club-level and professional road racers with the best contingency support in the business. In 2002 Suzuki will post over 1.3 million dollars in contingency prize money with 10 regional clubs across the nation, and at selected AMA, Formula USA and WERA events. For more information about Suzuki’s race contingency programs contact the Sports Promotions Department of American Suzuki at 714-996-7040.
