2005 GNCC "Yadkin Valley Stomp" Round #10 Morning ATV Racing Coverage

Stock Class Start

#31 Dave Simmons picked up right where he left off in the Senior Class by jumping out to the early lead with the Holeshot with #227 Will Cashion trying to reel him in from the second spot.

#964 Jarrod McClure was bumped into #204 Harlen Foley, which slowed the pair down as #253 Billy Good capitalized on the situation and passed the pair on the outside.

#444 Jamie Bougher barely avoids hooking his front tire on the turn post.

Heading into the Woods, Jarrod McClure tagged a tree with Harlen Foley getting hung up behind him, which allowed a freight train of riders including Jason Bougher to roll past the pair, which was going to make for a long day of racing.

Meanwhile, #35 Josh Whitehead stalled his Honda and required a quick push start to get started again, but unfortunately for Whitehead, he would only complete one lap after wrecking, which resulted in apparently a broken collarbone.

Get well Soon!!!

22-28 C Class Start

Clinton Stephen's wasted no time putting his new 2006 YFZ450 out front early just as did Dave Simmons did in the Stock Class, which is no surprise if you had an oppurtunity to ride the newly improved YFZ450.

29-34 C Class Start

Scott Wilson and James Barron battled for the lead heading through turn one

Unfortunately for Scott Wilson, he stayed too hard on the gas heading into turn two, which caused him to spin out. James Barron took over the lead and took a glimpse over his shoulder to see what happened to Wilson.

Scott was able to regain control and jump back into race mid pack, but was able to work his way back up into 2nd Place by the end of the first lap, but James Barron had a comfortable 1:42 minute lead over Wilson and would maintain the lead to the finish line for his second win of the season.

35+ C Class Start

Gary Whitecare took the Holeshot honor in the 35+ Class with Alan Root aboard his Honda 450R right behind him.
