GBC Motorsports’ Bryan Cook Takes Third at Snowshoe GNCC
Snowshoe GNCC - Round 7 - Snowshoe, WV- June 25, 2011

GBC's Bryan Cook took his season best finish by taking third place in the XC1 ATV Pro Class

Nestled high in the mountains of West Virginia, the Snowshoe GNCC is set apart with a different start and track layout that really throws the racers into a completely different atmosphere combined with miles upon miles of grueling rocks and mud sections that would claim rider after rider over the course of the two hour race.

GBC’s XC1 Pro ATV Racer, Bryan Cook was up to the challenge and would put his GBC Ground Buster II XC’s to the ultimate test as he racked up mile after mile over the harshest terrain one would ever want to encounter during a race. Cook rolled off the grand prix style pavement start and dug in to do battle on the mountain from the second row. Cook would charge his way into the top three after lap one, and Cook would maintain a solid run to the finish as he ripped across the finish line putting GBC Motorsports on the podium.

Cook was ecstatic to be back on the podium as he explained the season thus far hadn't found him finishing where he knew he could, and hopes to keep the momentum rolling as he looks towards the next round of racing.

Jeff Pickens finished ninth in the XC1 Pro Class. Pickens currently sits eleventh in the XC1 Pro ATV Points	Johnny Gallagher was running top five until a mechanical issue would take him out of the last half of the race

XC1 Pro Jeff Pickens was also having a great race and even though the conditions on the track were getting intense, Pickens would keep on the throttle and finish the day taking 9th. With the course so abusive, Pickens would be glad to finish and has his sights set on the next round. Johnny Gallagher was off to an impressive start running strong in the top five for the first half of the race, but he was taken out by mechanical issues that were becoming the norm for so many in these brutal conditions.

GBC's Kristen Atwell placed third in the Womens class. Atwell currently sits sixth in the Womens Class points

David Reeves would finish a solid third in Junior A and XC2 rider Eric Hoyland would suffer mechanical issues after pushing his Honda to the limits, settling for 12th. Morning racer Kristen Atwell would put in a valiant effort aboard her GBC equipped Yamaha and would once again find herself in the Women's class top three.

Familiar grounds await the series as round eight heads to Millfield, Ohio for the John Penton GNCC. With the impressive run Gallagher showed here at Snowshoe and Cook’s visit to the podium, the stage is set for another incredible battle as our racers continue to prove our products have what it takes to run with the best!
