St. Cloud, MN (5/11/2010) - Warnert
Racing’s Chris Bithell mounted an incredible
charge to take his first pro win of the season in
the tight winding trails of North Carolina at round
six of the 2010 GNCC series.
Bithell may have been last to head into the woods
off the start, but his skills on tight trails
are unmatched, and Bithell was able to work his
way through traffic and into fifth place by the
second lap. From there, Bithell pushed even harder.
“I battled a little with Chris Borich and
then I got ahead of him and saw Taylor Kiser out
front. I just kept reeling him in, and then I
took a different line out in the field. My line
was longer, but it was smoother than Kiser’s
and I was able to get around him and hold him
off,” Bithell explained. “I am really
glad to take the win. The Warnert team did a great
job with my Can-Am DS450 and everything just went
really well out there,” he added.

Bithell’s teammate, Adam McGill had a solid
race as well. McGill got off to a mid-pack start
and made a strong charge as he would make his way
to a fourth place finish. McGill’s consistency
this season now has him sitting in third place in
the pro points race. “I was really happy to
see Chris get the win. Next round I plan on joining
him on the podium,” said McGill.
Also in the afternoon classes, Jamie Bithell
was in top form, just like his older brother,
and took the College A class win. This is Bithell’s
second class win of the season that now has him
sitting in the College A points lead.
In the morning classes, Cliff Beasley clinched his
sixth straight win of the season in the U2 class.
Beasley grabbed the holeshot and never looked back,
leaving the competition in the dust. “It felt
great to go out there and get another win for the
Warnert team. I want to win all of them this season,
that’s my goal, but I am going to stay focused
and take it race by race,” said Beasley.

Michael Swift took his fourth win of the season
in the 4x4 Limited class and is holding down a
comfortable points lead. “I had a good day
out there. I was able to take another win for
the team and I’m looking forward to the
next round,” said Swift.
4x4 Open class defending champ, Bryan Buckhannon
ran another flawless race to take his fourth win
of the season. “It was a really good day
for our team. Everything went smoothly and I was
able to come out on top,” stated Buckhannon,
who has a nice points lead with 111 points.
The next round of the 2010 GNCC series will head
to Mountain Ridge in Somerset, PA on May 22nd
where Chris Bithell and Adam McGill will both
be gunning for the pro podium.
