Patton, PA (6/1/2011) - Rockstar
Makita Suzuki’s Chris Borich raced his Yoshimura-equipped
Suzuki QuadRacer R450 to a hard-fought victory
at this weekend’s Rock Run GNCC, round six
of the 2011 ATV Grand National Cross Country series,
in Patton, PA.
After getting off the line in fifth place,
Borich made the most of the fast and rocky,
12.5-mile course, picking off the front-runners
left and right. By the halfway point of the
two-hour race, he’d moved his Suzuki QuadRacer
into the lead. From there, the defending series
champion held off all challenges and captured
his fourth win of the year.
“It ended up being a freight train, all
of us running together, and it was pretty hard
to pass,” said Borich. “It’s
always good to add to a points lead and I was
happy to accomplish that today. We’ve
got a little cushion now. The Suzuki worked
awesome today, the power was unbelievable and
I can’t thank Yoshimura and the team enough.”
With one more round under his belt, Borich
is already looking forward to the next race
in West Virginia where he’ll have another
opportunity to further increase his points lead.
“That will be an interesting race,”
said Borich. “That’s going to be
a survival race and will boil down to picking
good lines.”
Borich, the reigning ATV XC1 champion, now
leads the 2011 ATV Grand National Cross Country
series championship by 28 points as the series
moves to Snowshoe, WV, on June 26th for the
Snowshoe GNCC. For more information, visit www.suzukicycles.com.
