Duluth, Minnesota's Bobby LePage is teaming up with one of the sport's most popular drivers.

After racing last season on the Hulten Speed Sports Team on the East Coast Snocross circuit (formerly Rock Maple Racing), LePage just signed a deal to race on Minnesota-based Team LaVallee and be teammates with the team's owner Levi LaVallee, according to TeamLaVallee.com.

This marks the third team in three years for LePage. Prior to joining Hulten Speed Sports for the 2009-10 season, LePage was a part of the Shakopee, Minnesota-based Hentges Racing Team.

Competing in the East last season, LePage won the Pro Stock and Pro Open points championships. In 2008-09, LePage raced on the International Series of Champions Amsoil Championship Snocross Series (ISOC ACSS) in the Semi-Pro Open and Pro Stock classes. Finishing in the top 10 in seven of eight Semi-Pro Open finals, LePage earned enough points to take third in the year-end points battle. He finished 13th in Pro Stock.

"It is very refreshing to see someone as motivated and willing to work so hard to accomplish his goals like Bobby is," LaVallee said on his Web site. "His passion for racing will be great for the team and myself to help elevate us to new levels."
