Ontario, CA (7/5/2011) - GBC Motorsports’
Travis Moore braved the muddy moto one conditions
at Sunday Creek to claim a top ten finish overall
in the Pro Production class while pro-am racer Nicholas
Moser finished on the podium in the Pro-am Unlimited
class at round number eight of the 2011 AMA ATV
Motocross Championships.
The weather at Millfield, OH was not in the mood
to cooperate for the first pro moto of the day
as rain fell creating slick and muddy conditions
for racers as they left the gate for the first
Pro moto of the day.
GBC Motorsports’ Travis Moore made the
best of the inclement weather and came off the
line in the top ten. Moore was able to work his
way into the number seven spot but the muddy conditions
would cause vision problems for Moore and he would
drop back to round out the top ten for the first
moto.

In the second moto the skies cleared and the
track dried out a bit, which helped Moore charge
from the back of the pack on the start. Moore
missed a shift off the start and found himself
in the number fourteen spot, but he put the hammer
down and made an impressive run, picking off riders
one by one as he reached the top ten, Moore would
then battle it out with veteran racer Joe Byrd,
but Moore’s perseverance allowed him to
get ahead and finish in the number eight spot,
giving him a respectable seventh place overall
for the day. “We’ve had a bit of bad
luck, but we are hoping to break that at Unadilla.
I still have to thank everyone at GBC Motorsports
for helping me be out here every weekend and living
the dream. We are still working hard and I think
it’s going to pay off at the next round,”
said Moore.
In the Pro-am ranks, Nicholas Moser was looking
good as he charged off the line just outside of
the top five in the first Pro-am Unlimited moto.
Moser put his head down and made his way into the
number three spot before reaching the checkered
flag. In the second moto, Moser was again outside
of the top five off the start, but worked his way
up for a fourth place finish. Moser’s consistent
3-4 finishes allowed his to claim the final spot
on the Pro-am Unlimited podium.
Moser also had a good showing in the Pro-am Production
class. Moser came off the gate in seventh in the
first moto and climbed into the number five position
before reaching the checkers. In moto two, Moser
was running strong and looked as if he would again
claim a podium position, but a battled in mid
moto sent him off the track and ended his day
in the seventh lap, but Moser’s strong performance
was enough to earn him a respectable sixth overall.
The GBC Motorsports team will be heading to Unadilla
in New Berlin, NY on July 16th – 17th where
Travis Moore and Nicholas Moser will be charging
hard as they go for the podium in each of their
classes.
