2008 GNCC Series-Round#11- Unadilla ATV Race Coverage

[Pappy]

Round #11 of the Can Am GNCC Series headed north to the world famous Unadilla MX facility for what would end up being one of the most exciting races of the season. The fall foliage was turning the landscape into a brilliant display of oranges, yellows and reds, however you would have to wait for the clouds to lift to see them!

Results and Reports

Saturday morning would dawn with mist and light rain bringing in the new day. The forecast was for rain, and the Unadilla soil would gladly take it. This is one of the few GNCC races where rain is a good thing in moderation and we would see just about the full range of weather throughout the event.

With only 3 rounds of competition remaining in the season, many classes are wrapping up the points chase, while others remain up for grabs. The racing can intensify as we close in on crowning our class champions and as a fan of GNCC racing, I couldnt wait to get the thing started!

Micheal Benson gets ready to make his V-Force sing in the U2 class.

Womens class racer Kristen Atwell is all smiles as she sits in the rain awaiting the start. Kristen has been running strong all season long and currently sits 3rd in class points.

Jesi Stracham moved from the Schoolboy class to Womens Novice at the Yadkinville round, and claimed her first class win at that event. This round, we would find Jesi sitting a few rows closer to the first turn as she made the jump to the Womens class.

Defending Womens class champion, Traci Cecco, is always a pleasure to see so early in the morning and I think may even brighten a dull and dreary sky! Cecco is locked in the points battle with Angel Atwell and would be looking at doing everything she could to pull off a wn this round.

Joe Borich would be racing for the 3rd straight round in 4x4 Open. Joe isnt a slouch when it comes to racing, and todays course would be right up his alley aboard his 4x4 machine!
