#1 Bill Ballance & #202 Traci Cecco both
finished first Overall at Loretta Lynn's GNCC |
Cypress, CA (4/25/2006) - The April
22-23 racing weekend was fantastic for the Yamaha
YFZ450, with three wins for prominent racers in
Tennessee and California. Talented female racer
Traci Cecco started it off with a convincing win
in the GNCC morning race at the famed Loretta
Lynn's Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tenn. She took
the lead immediately and commanded the entire
three laps to take her fourth win of the season,
and now enjoys a six-point series lead over fellow
YFZ450 rider Angel Atwell, who finished third.
In the Saturday afternoon Pro race, defending GNCC
champion Bill Ballance scored his second win of the
season aboard his own YFZ450. While Traci enjoyed
a two-minute lead at the checkered flag, Ballance
had to battle much harder with championship rival
Chris Borich, and completed the three laps with a
winning margin of just four seconds. Ballance's victory
brings him to within five points of Borich as the
long 16-race series continues.
In California, on Sunday Kory Ellis captured the
19th annual Four Stroke Nationals at Glen Helen Raceway
Park in San Bernardino, Calif. On a tough motocross
track, Ellis used his YFZ450's power and handling
to score perfect 1-1 moto wins - and secure back-to-back
victories in the prestigious annual event. Dustin
Nelson earned 3-3 moto finishes to put his own YFZ450
on the podium in third.
