2009 GNCC Racing Series - Round#4 - Big Buck - ATV & UTV Race Coverage

Gabe Phillips would finish his day in the 4th spot in XC2, and it wont be long before he is battling for that podium himself!

Gabe stated after the race:

"Well the race started real good, I was in 3rd. We went into the new section of the track and moved into 2nd.Then going down a downhill I caught a tree and went to 4th. I tried making a come back but when I got caught up again, I made another mistake and the last one caused me too finish 4th but thats not what I was looking for. So at Loretta Lynns I hope I can get a another good start and I want to get a podium finish!"

Parker Jones would fall back during the race, finishing his day in the 11th spot.

Parker stated:

"When I heard the 10 second call I began counting down until the green flag was thrown. As the flag waved I kicked and it fired and my Rekluse clutch launched me off the line. I reached the first turn and tried not to let out of the gas and kicked it sideways because I knew there were raging racers right behind me. I knew I had plenty of motor to get me across the holeshot line first and as it did my heart was pounding and off I went. I had a good first lap and was rolling along good. As the track got rougher my bike performed worse and worse and I could not get in the groove and pick up a rhythm. So I gave it all I had and tried to make it work but I kept losing spot by spot. I rode hard and pulled off an eleventh place and was not happy, but that's part of racing. The needed changes/issues will be addressed over the next two weeks and I'll be ready for Loretta's."

4 laps goes by super fast and in no time we were all gathered to see who could pull off the win.

Borich would make the pass with just a few turns to go and claim the win!

These two have had some close battles the past two rounds, and the racing has been intense. Neither one wants to screw up as the championship is on the line!

Chris was stoked to have pulled out the win. I have a feeling that sooner or later, bravado might overtake caution, lets face it, these boys want to win!

Chris and Adam chat about thier race. They may fight each other on the track, but it's great to see the battle end at the finish line!

4 rounds in, and Ballance has found the podium twice as he heals up and charges forward! 2 more weeks to get back in shape and get his wind and he might be able to pull off a win:D

If your wondering about his racing spirit, its alive and well. He explained from the podium that if he could have moved more lappers he may have been able to cause some comotion between the top 2! Go get'em Bill!

McGill checks out his trophy for his 2nd place performance. There are a few things wrong me thinks....

1) Adam could be trying to read what it says, but hillbillys cant read:devil:

Nope, McGill is edumacated so I know he can read.....


I think he had just realized that the winner gets a better trophy, as here he takes a gander at what Chris was holding:eek: :blah:

Did I hear Bill say that is about the biggest buck Adam would ever get in WV:confused: :devil:
