Suwanee, GA (3/4/2012) - Taylor Kiser took his first victory of the season at the third round of GNCC ATV racing, while Maxxis’ sponsored riders grabbed four of the top five XC1 Pro spots. Round 3, Steele Creek, was held March 31 in Morganton, North Carolina.

The race belonged to Maxxis from the beginning, as Ballance Racing/Yamaha’s Walker Fowler took the holeshot. The lead changed hands in the opening laps, but Kiser gained the front spot after the first hour. In the final lap, defending champ and points leader Chris Borich battled Kiser almost up to the finish line. “I got off to a great start,” said Kiser. “The track had several water crossings and slick conditions, and the tires performed flawlessly when it was slick. Other parts were really rutted, and the tires hooked up and just got me to the finish in front.”

Borich took third place in XC1, with Fowler and Brian Wolf earning the fourth and fifth-place spots. Borich and Kiser are first and second in XC1 points, while Fowler is fourth and Wolf is sixth.

Gabe Phillips followed up his XC2 Pro Am win at Round 2 with a podium spot at Steele Creek, taking second place in the class. In the morning race, Team UXC’s Michael Swift won the 4x4 Open class and was fourth overall. Traci Cecco took third place in the Women’s class for eighth place overall, while Swift’s teammate Cliff Beasley won the U2 class and earned ninth place overall.

Maxxis congratulates Taylor Kiser, Michael Swift and Cliff Beasley on their victories and thanks all of its riders for their fine performances.
