Wesley Chapel, FL (2/10/2009)
- Farr Racing Enterprises (FRE)
is proud to announce the expansion of the FRE
KTM GNCC ATV Team for the 2009 season. Angel
Atwell, Women’s A, and Josh Kirkland,
XC-2 Pro-Am, will join Adam McGill to contend
the thirteen-race GNCC ATV series. It is an
impressive combination of top riders contending
in three different classes and chasing three
Championships.
West Virginia’s Adam McGill completed
the 2008 GNCC season in the top three of the
Pro class behind Yamaha’s Bill Balance
and Suzuki’s Chris Borich. McGill finished
the season with an impressive four wins. McGill
is looking forward to his second season on the
KTM ATV and has set his sights on the Pro Championship.
Pennsylvania’s Angel Atwell, finished
in the runner-up position in the GNCC Women’s
A class this past season to seven-time Champion,
Traci Cecco. Atwell won five races and finished
a mere two points behind Cecco for the Championship.
Atwell believes that FRE KTM will make the difference
this year.
West Virginia’s Josh Kirkland won the
last two races of the season to finish third
in the XC-2 Pro-Am class. Kirkland has progressed
through the amateur ranks and proves to be quite
a talent as last year was his first season in
XC-2. Kirkland also earned fifteenth overall,
ahead of many Pro riders. Kirkland has his sights
set on the top of XC-2.
Thirteen-time ATV Champion, Tim Farr will continue
to manage the FRE KTM GNCC ATV Team in 2009.
Farr is confident and excited about the season.
“FRE KTM is proud to have McGill, Atwell,
and Kirkland on the team. You will be seeing
a lot of orange on the podium this season. We
have a real chance at three Championships here”
said Farr.
