The company’s sponsored riders ruled from
the start of the race, as Fowler took the holeshot
and jockeyed with Kiser and another rider for
the lead. Borich took a spot among the front five
racers soon after the start, and took the victory
with a pass near the end. “I was pushing
on [Fowler], and he started making little mistakes
here and there,” said Borich. “With
the course being so tight, there wasn’t
much room for passing, so I waited for a field
section to put a pass on him. The course was like
an old GNCC, super-tight and technical, just really
rough. The tires hooked up on the hill-climbs
with rock faces and tree roots.” Borich
leads the XC1 class in points, with Kiser in third
place and Fowler in fourth.
A Maxxis rider also topped the XC2 Pro Am podium
as Gabe Phillips took his second class win of
the season and seventh place overall. Phillips
is fourth in points for XC2.
Taking her third win of the year and finishing
second overall in the morning race, Traci Cecco
leads the Women’s class in points. Team
UXC had another outstanding weekend as well, with
Michael Swift taking second place for 4x4 Open
and fifth place overall and Cliff Beasley remaining
undefeated in the U2 class. Beasley was eighth
overall for the morning and is in first place
in U2 points.
Borich, Fowler, Kiser, Phillips and Cecco counted
on Razr rear and Razr 2 front tires at the Mammoth
GNCC round. Team UXC is running the Bighorn 2.0
throughout the season.
Maxxis thanks all of its riders for their fine
performances.
