pilots his QuadRacer R450 ATV towards
victory

Brea, CA (3/3/2008) - Suzuki
rider Chris Borich dominated the first round
of the GNCC Championship series at the Kempfer
Ranch in Melbourne, Florida. Known as "The
Triton" this event is a tough test of man
and machine.
Borich, from Sunbury PA, rode his Suzuki QuadRacer
R450 to a commanding victory, pulling to a nearly
two minute margin of victory at the checkers.
The new track was a real challenge to all riders
and Borich felt that his QuadRacer helped make
the winning difference.

"The track was much rougher than in the past,"
the 25 year old Borich said after the event. "Palmetto
roots everywhere, heat, holes, trees, it was a
tough one. I love this Suzuki. It's my first race
on it, but as soon as I got on the bike I was
comfortable."
The race went well for Borich. He was jostled
a bit off the start then steadily picked off
riders, and passed into the lead on lap two.
"The early leaders got tired pretty quickly
and I was able to get past them. Once I got
into the lead - I just took off."
Asked how he rated the overall performance
of the Suzuki, seven year Pro-class veteran
Borich said, "Awesome! The best bike I've
been on. I've ridden other brands, but this
thing just blows them away. The Suzuki has a
really low center of gravity, is super fast
and responsive, the front end is great... the
whole package makes it easy to go fast on. Those
other guys were getting beat up by the track.
I had an advantage with the QuadRacer."

just part of the plan. The series continues next
