Valcourt, Canada (9/22/2010) -
Heading into the next weekend of GNCC racing, Warnert
Racing / Can-Am GNCC racer Michael Swift has much
to reflect upon after his 4x4 Limited championship-clinching
performance at the Unadilla GNCC in upstate New
York. His impressive win aboard his Can-Am Outlander
800R XT brought him his fifth championship in a
row.
"What can you say about Michael Swift?"
says Jimmie O'Dell, Racing Manager for Can-Am
ATVs at BRP. "He is one of the smartest,
most consistent racers I've ever seen. When he
pulls up to the line the rest of the field knows
it is truly a race for second place. We at BRP
are excited to see Swift get his fifth GNCC championship
on the Warnert Racing / Can-Am Outlander 800R
XT."
Since making the switch to Can-Am at the beginning
of the 2006 GNCC season, Swift has a winning percentage
of 77 percent. He has taken the win in 48 of the
62 races he's entered since the Orange Crush GNCC
opener in 2006.
In the rest of the morning racing at Unadilla,
Lexie Coulter piloted her Warnert Racing / Can-Am
DS 450 to second overall in the session. She currently
is fourth in the Women's class championship. Rick
Cecco raced his Can-Am Outlander 800R XT to the
4x4 Open win, and represents his second win of
the season in the class. Cliff Beasley continued
his quest for a perfect season aboard his Warnert
Racing / Can-Am Renegade 800R X xc as he again
took the U2-class win; that win represents his
10th out of 10 races this season. Can-Am X-Team
racer, Kevin Trantham, took his Outlander 500
XT to the top of the 4x4 Lites class and Mike
Penland brought himself closer to putting himself
in the lead for the Utility Sr. (45+) class championship
by taking a win on his Outlander 800R XT.
In the afternoon, Warnert Racing / Can-Am DS
450 racer, Adam McGill took third overall and
remains third in the points championship with
three races to go. His teammate, Chris Bithell,
took fourth overall. Can-Am X-Team racer Lance
Smith took the Vet A (30+) class win on his DS
450.
The next round in the 13-race series is the Titan
GNCC on September 25 near Lafayette, TN. For more
