Round #4 of the Youth GNCC stomped it's way into Yadkinville N.C. this weekend, and despite the high fuel costs, the attendence of Youth riders was excellent!
Riders from all over the country poured into this bonus round and the action would be no less exciting. Young riders were full of stories from the summer break, which included everything from a visit to the grandparents, vacations and even the hurricane!
On the line saturday morning, eager racers prepared to do battle on a 2 mile course. The course was very fast, and was the first dry track these kids have had the chance to race on this season. Field sections mixed with meandering trails offered the chance for first time racers to compete without obstacles that were niether to harsh or dangerous. Planing a course for youth riders can be tougher then one may think, but Racer Productions did an excellent job as usual.
Devon Delucca hails from Slippery Rock PA, and rides his Honda 90 in the 90cc Production class. This season has not been kind to him at all with 2 DNF's posted in the first 3 rounds. I have watched him this year, and when I saw him on the line I simply asked him if he was ready to try and win this thing. His response was a simple"Yes". The response may have been short, simple and direct, but I had a feeling that today he was going to get his just reward.
