Valcourt, Canada (3/23/2010) -
Round Three of the Grand National Cross Country
(GNCC) series near Morganton, North Carolina, saw
a perfect day of racing as both the morning racers
and afternoon racers anticipated a dry, rugged course.
Can-Am ATV racers would walk away from the race
day with an impressive six class wins, including
a sweep of the 4x4 classes.
"It was a solid weekend for our Can-Am ATV
racers," says Jimmie O'Dell, Racing Manager
for Can-Am ATVs at BRP. "We took some good
lessons away from Steele Creek and are looking
forward to even better results at Big Buck!"
Team Warnert / Can-Am racer Bryan Buckhannon
showed why he is the racer to beat in the 4x4
Open class as he powered his Can-Am Outlander™
800R XT EFI ATV to the class win. His teammate,
Lexie Coulter, had a great result on her DS 450™,
taking third overall for the morning race and
second in the Women's class. Coulter had the lead
on the last lap until lapped traffic forced her
to second place. Warnert Racing's Cliff Beasley
was also successful taking the U2 class win on
his Renegade™ 800R X™ xc by almost
five minutes.
In the afternoon, College A (16-21) class racer
Jamie Bithell rode his Warnert Racing / Can-Am
DS 450 to the class win and finished ahead of
almost 200 other racers. Can-Am X-Team racers
Scott Kilby and Kevin Tratham took wins in the
4x4 Limited and 4x4 Lites classes respectively.
Finally, Can-Am Outlander racer Forrest Whorton
took the Utility Sr. (45+) win during the morning
race.
The next round in the GNCC championship is the
Big Buck GNCC near Union, South Carolina on April
10th. For more information on Can-Am racing, the
