What is his 2010 GNCC #?You can add about 30 to that for 2011.I hope that statement is wrong , I really do.They need to do some work with the Motoworks group because it seems like they are having the best luck with the ds.I would like to see them in the battle week in and week out not just a couple of rounds a year.Good luck Adam.

So hes going to be on the Warnert Racing Team? I hope they get a lot of help from the motoworks team. I agree with etccb, The Motoworks Team seems to have the ds450 figured out.

I have read that McGill will be on a Warnert Racing ds450 outfitted with Walsh Racing components and Ohlins shocks.

Could be, but they seem to have Bithell running pretty strong. Id love to see great battles all season, im in it for the racing action not who rides what.

I think that he would do better on a Honda backed by Baldwin if he can't be on the KTM...

XCRacer236, I completely agree with your statement.

The guy needs to get paid. He paid his dues and now he's making a choice. Maybe they can put a good solid effort in the program and get him up front in 2010. I say congrats McGill!

i wish Can-Am would pull their sponsorship from GNCC entirely. all they are doing is embarrassing them selves.

i would love to see Borich and Bithell on Zuki's together.
with Ballance and Sommers right there on the Yammi's. Then Cook on the KTM. now THAT would be truly amazing!

yea, I mean how could that possibly hurt the atv racing scene?:rolleyes:

yea i know lol. Can Am puts so much support into our sport. Heck they are the title sponsor of the GNCC series. They send out rigs at the ATV MX nationals for people to test ride their machines. Can Am sure isnt embarrassing themselves in the Utility side of GNCC racing. They have been dominating year after year.

Yeah, all those championships they won this year....who in the world would want that so embarassing:p

Kudos for can am's support. They dont force anyone to buy one, and work hard at making the DS work. Id rather have a company like them supporting our sport instead of those running away when its time to tighten the belt.

ok, so they should pull their DS's. i stand corrected.

+1. I may not own a Can Am but I do applaud them for the amount of support they're puttin forth. I think McGill will still be competitive on the DS. Warnert has a great operation going.

Yes, lets kick out one of the three companies out there that put more support into atv racing then any of the big 4 combined.:confused:

OOOO.....Back to the good ol days Pappy. I will see you next year at the races and at a certain event next fall:devil: The last Sturdivant boy's was crazy!!!!

Pappy
11-16-2009, 06:39 PM
Yeah it was crazy, McGill taught my youngest son how to "get all up on her" on the dance floor:devil:

This year looks to be pretty exciting. You have a few riders who will have the "Team" behind them, a few will be running and gunning WFO with no one to answer to and even a few scores to settle here and there. Should be a great season!!

I think Sturdivant's 2011 GNCC number will drop a lot and McGill's will go the other way a min of 8.

It's possible, but in this economy, looking for the best deal financially might be the smart move if you are in the sport for the long haul.

I agree.. Maybe this will open some eyes for the others in 2011. Highly unlikely but one can hope.. lol

I think Can Am is going the right direction -my hats off to them!

I wouldnt be surprised if we dont see more Can Am 's on the track next season. I know over hear on the West Coast.
Mr. Leach and Motoworks Team has been a great asset to the West Coast.

Of all times... this past year has been finanically tough for many. As Pappys signature says...Support those that support you.

Congrats to him to get the offer, you have to follow the money with our economy right now. Hopefully can-am has their bugs worked out by next season, I think Bithell showed the quad can run up front with the rest when there were no mechanical issues. BTW... did KTM pull out or will they be backing another rider for next season..???
