Warnert Racing's Adam McGill placed third at Ironman GNCC aboard his Can-Am DS450 ATV

St. Cloud, MN (10/27/2011) - Warnert Racing’s Adam McGill took to the podium at the Ironman round of the 2011 GNCC while teammate Chris Bithell finished in a close fourth place. The Warnert Side-by-Side team also took a top five finish after a tough battle

The Ironman round of the series was also host to the Second Annual Pink Race in support of cancer awareness. Warnert Racing’s Adam McGill was part of some extracurricular activities in support of the cause. On Friday, McGill and several other racers took time to hang out with the 5th and 6th graders at New Market Elementary School to make special Pink buttons that would also allow the kids free admission to the GNCC this weekend with many students showing up to Saturday’s races, much to the delight of McGill and the others who attended.

“I had the opportunity to go out to one of the elementary schools in the area and talk to the kids about racing and cancer awareness and it was a lot of fun. I do this kind of thing around home, but have never had the opportunity to go out of state. A lot of the kids actually showed up to the races the next day so it was really cool,” said McGill, who was back to business for Saturday’s races.

McGill got a good start as he left the line and took an early lead in the first lap. McGill was looking strong and fast, but lap traffic at the midway point of the race sent him back to the number four spot. McGill was able to regain the lead for a short time, but he would not be able to hold and ended his day in the number three spot on the pro podium. “I got a good start and was leading for the first couple of laps. I fell back but was able to retake the lead, but I fell back again and finished in third. I had a good time out there anyway and it was a good race, so I’m pretty happy,” stated McGill.

Chris Bithell placed just outside top three in fourth place. Bithell currently sits third the GNCC XC1 Pro ATV Points

Warnert Racing’s Chris Bithell didn’t get the best start, but he made up for it as he put the hammer down and charged through traffic. By the second lap, Bithell had moved into fourth place and was within striking distance of Taylor Kiser, who was holding down third. Bithell was looking fast and smooth, but he was unable to better his position before reaching the checkered flag and would settle for a fourth place finish.

In the Women’s class, Lexie Coulter was in third off the start and was looking consistent as she held her position for three laps. Coulter moved into second in lap four, but was unable to hold her position and fell to fourth place before crossing the finish line. Coulter is currently third in points and should be able to hold strong for the final round at Loretta Lynn’s.

Warnert/Foremost Insurance UTV team placed fifth in their Can-Am Commander Side-by-Side in Crawfordsville, IN

The final round of the 2011 GNCC series will be heading to Loretta Lynn’s in Hurricane Mills, TN on November 5th where the Warnert team will be going for wins all around to end their seasons on a high note and put Warnert Racing on top of the podium.
