Washington, GA (3/10/2008) -
KTM Factory ATV GNCC riders Adam McGill and Taylor
Kiser astounded GNCC fans when the teammates finished
first and second at the second round of the GNCC
series.
McGill who had finished a strong 5th place
overall at the first round in Melbourne, FL
was prepared to improve upon that finish at
the Georgia race. He was well on his way to
his first win as soon as he and his KTM 525
XC Sport ATV pulled the holeshot at the start
of the race. His teammate Kiser grabbed a mid-pack
start but quickly began to move forward.
McGill started in the lead and intended to
finish that way as he continued to charge forward
pulling farther ahead of the pack with each
lap. During the two hour race in which McGill
got out front and dominated his teammate Kiser
was busy battling competitors to catch up to
his teammate and move into that second place
position. Near the end of the race he managed
to work his way into second; earning his best
ever overall finish in a GNCC race.
