Union, SC – Two weeks after some intense racing between the Killer B’s (Borich, Ballance, Bithell) and yet another podium sweep by the women with Traci Cecco putting her Yamaha YFZ450 out front, GNCC ATV racing resumes this weekend for Round #4 of the 13 race series.
Unlike last weekend, there isn’t any chance of snow, but severe thunderstorms. When arrived earlier today, it was a picture perfect day for racing with temps in the 70’s and partly cloudy skies and a slight breeze, but the forecast isn’t looking as pretty for tonight and Saturday with a line of thunderstorm moving in overnight and into tomorrow’s racing, which has the area under a tornado and hail watch along with damaging wind gust.
Either way, GNCC racing will go on as it did last year at Loretta Lynn’s after the area was flooded along with a tornados touching down in the area, but racers better be prepared for possibly the first true mud race of the season. It may be muddy tomorrow, but if we didn’t get the rain it would be a major dust fest as the ground is super dry and even walking stirs up the dust, and I would rather race in mud than dust any day.
Here is a glimpse at tonight’s radar, so it looks like the weathermen might know what they are talking about for a change.
