Lagopoulos reigns at Toyota National Tour opener PersonalWatercraft.com May 19, 2010 Shares Comments Sea-Doo pilot sweeps Pro runabout classesBRP’s Sea-Doo X-TEAM watercraft racer Eric Lagopoulos accomplished a very rare trifecta at the opening round of the UWP Toyota National Tour in Panama City Beach, Fla. winning the Pro Open, Pro Stock and Pro 800 runabout classes. The veteran rider negotiated his Sea-Doo RXP-X watercraft through choppy waters to win the three closed-course racing events. Lagopoulos collected $2,500 for his three wins plus another $460 bonus in Sea-Doo X-TEAM Bounty contingency funds. Citing the need for maximum control and reliability, Lagopoulos choose to ride his stock Sea-Doo RXP-X watercraft in the open class against a field of much more highly modified watercraft to win the premier class. “The water conditions were really rough,” says Lagopoulos. “BRP’s Sea-Doo RXP-X worked perfect in the conditions as I always felt in complete control; knowing exactly what the PWC was going to do. I was able to focus on going as fast I could, which was key to winning today. Winning all three Pro runabout classes, collecting a big purse, and earning Sea-Doo X-TEAM Bounty money is a dream race day.” Troy Snyder finished in second place in the Pro Stock class aboard his Neptune Racing prepped Sea-Doo RXP-X watercraft. Snyder backed up his previous weekend win in Tavares, Fla. with a solid performance heading into the heart of the 2010 racing season. The next month holds three key racing events on the national level as the APBA National Tour takes to the Atlantic Surf with a visit to Myrtle Beach, SC on June 5-6 and the UWP Toyota National Tour makes its second stop in Syracuse, NY on May 29-30 and third stop in Racine, Wis. on June 19-20.
