Check the line up in Jan. for round 1.

Jeff, are ya comin out any time in 2008?
We would love to see a few of the East Coasters venture out,at least I speak for myself and family :)
I love hearing how each end hits a venue and talks about there experience in a dif. form of racing .Both are different in more ways than one and I feel its exciting to read about.
It only adds to our sport IMO as long as its looked at in that perspective . I would just hate to see abit of a "rival" kind of thing over it all ,which I could see happening.
Im still glad to see Eichner went out and done this .Each style of racing is much different .I wish we was closer to see more of it! :)


Congrats to Mr. B!!:macho

I don't have any plans to yet bet I will if the oportunity comes up again.

doug had trouble about lap 3 that I saw.. He had to be pulled up the first uphill ... his rotor had his front left wheel locked and he had one flat at that time don't know any more

Sounds like they didn't set Eichner up with a pro caliber machine. No tireballs?

ballance comes out west to race the elsinore grand prix....
this years race will be fun to watch seeing that Eichner got embarrassed back east... lol

I wouldn't say embarrassed . I was told that Eichner was rolling pretty good, just some bad luck.

ya he is pretty fast... i cant see him gettin smoked like that....

I have seen Eichner in action this year at several WORCS races, and he is much faster than his finish this weekend. He started dead last because he stalled it on the line, and he got a flat tire and didn't have the Outlaw suspension working right for him because he was riding a machine he never raced before.

Sure, Sure, if every thing was perfect, I still don't expect to see him challenge for a top position at the Ironman of all races because he hasn't raced a GNCC in 8 years, and there aren't many trees in California to dodge or at man WORCS races because they are pretty wide open besides the Washington races.

I think the opening round of the series in Florida would be the best choice for Eichner to make another return to GNCC racing because I would expect him to fair much better than Ironman because he can fly in the sand as I witnessed that just one week ago in California.

For a man 43 Years old, he impresses me everytime I watch him race, and I really hope he comes and runs another round next year because it fun having riders like Natalie, Eichner, and other Pro racers try out GNCC racing.

Also, I did an interview with Eichner about his GNCC Experience, which will be released in the very near future...

Congrats to Bill Ballance & all the 2007 GNCC Champions as many Championships were determined at the final round of the series.

Photo Galleries will be uploaded by Monday Night at the latest.

I read that the Grand Prix was cancelled this year.

Looking forward to reading that interview with Eichner...be interesting to hear his thoughts on the GNCC.

I too have seen Eichner race as I used to race the WORCS series (moved from WA to GA last Jan) and yup, the man is definitely fast. And heck, after seeing a picture of him washing our friends 11 year old daughters quad at one of the races (and then the follow up photo of him signing that photo) he gets a big thumbs up in my book!

I'm just happy to see riders mixing it up and letting their fans see them at different venues. I hope to see him again next season!

Anyone familiar with Eichner would know right away that with a finish that far back, he obviously had issues......he's much faster than that, and a great rider in any condition......glad to see he came out and raced back East!! I'm sure he enjoyed it, despite his bad luck! ;)
