Bill Ballance was one again on the Podium for the 7th time this year!!! He five in a row streak was ended at Sparta, but Bill was ready to start over again with another Win.
Bill is an incredible racer to watch, and he earns every victory with his relentless determination. Congratulations Bill!!!
Matt Smiley made his 4th podium apperance this year, and it was great to see him up there in his home state.
With the finish line confusion, Jeff Stoess found himself on the Podium again, but in the end, he was scored 5th overall. I think Jeff is getting addicted to the podium thing. He sure did look happy.

Paramedics attended to Chad's injuries as William Yokley describes to BRYAN, Chad's Mechanic, what happened.
I enjoyed the racing at the Rausch Creek course this past weekend, but looking back at all the injuries and severally damaged ATVs, I feel the course was too fast in sections for the rocky and dusty conditions. I almost lost it twice in the Morning race and half of the top Pro 10 riders suffered injuries or quad failures because of the rough conditions.
Jeff Stoess signed Autographs for the fans after the race.
John Pellan of ATV Scene was even on hand for the Race!!

Tyson Thomas made his GNCC debut last year at Rausch Creek after missing the 1st half of the season, and after wrecking on the start, he came back to finish an impressive 5th overall.
This year he missed the first half of the season because of injury, and was looking for a repeat performance from last year.
