Adam McGill on KTM's 525 XC ATV
|
Morganton, NC (3/30/2008) - Factory FRE/KTM rider Adam McGill earned his second win in a row at the third round of the ATV GNCC Series.
After a dominating win at the Georgia round
McGill repeated the result this weekend to prove
it wasn't a fluke and he is indeed a title contender
for this season's championship.
Just like he did at round 2, McGill pulled
an amazing holeshot and got out front fast.
By the end of the first lap he had already put
20 seconds on the second place rider, Bill Balance.
McGill's teammate, Taylor Kiser started a bit
farther back around 10th place and had moved
into 7th by the end of lap one.
After the first lap Kiser had caught up with
Brandon Sommers and Chris Borich and the three
riders battled throughout the remainder of the
two hour race. "I caught up to the front
pack rather quickly but every time I tried to
pass I would get stuck behind lappers in a bottleneck
and lose time. It was a one-lined course and
since I didn't have the start I needed I struggled
to break through," commented Kiser. Meanwhile,
McGill was still pulling out front stretching
his lead to over a minute. McGill would go on
to win after leading the race start to finish
in a near flawless ride out front. Kiser finished
7th for the day earning enough points to keep
him in the title chase. After three rounds McGill
and Kiser now sit one and two in the series
points.
"I am so happy to be on top of the podium
for the second week straight," replied
McGill after the race. "This is where I've
known I could be for a long time, but I couldn't
have made it happen if it wasn't for the help
of my team and a great bike. My KTM is running
perfect and almost makes my job seem easy."
