2009 GNCC Racing Series - Round #8- The John Penton - ATV Race Coverage (
It is hard to believe that we are already 8 rounds deep in the Can Am GNCC Series! 8 rounds that has been providing some great racing for the racers and fans alike as the weather this season thus far as been a tad bit drier then the past two seasons.
I had a super busy week and wasn't as rested as I should have been to handle the race, but I am sure many of you know how that goes
Saturday morning would dawn foggy and overcast, setting an ominous tone for the days action. I decided since I wouldn't be on hand for the next round, that I would spend the morning catching up with some folks as it would be my last chance to see many of them until after the summer break.
Rick Cecco was getting geared up and ready to give it a go as he battles for the U2 class championship.
Now there is usually a fair amount of playful smack talk in the pits, and Johnny G was in rare form! The veteran XC1 class racer informed me that he is the fastest and best tire groover period!
I smell a tire grooving competition....he pretty much stated that everyone else sucks
Trent Kandel would be entered in the race as he gives XC racing a go. Kandel can usually be found flying high over jumps as he competes against the nations finest in the MX series.
Now while Johnny G was busily pronouncing his claim to fame with a tire groover, the opposite side of the coin was none other then Traci Cecco. Cecco shook her head at the demonstration of male libido as she worked on doing her thing.
Speaking of Can Am .....it was awesome to see Byran Buckhannon at the track, gimpy leg and all! Bryan was in good spirits and was looking forward to watching the days event unfold with the rest of us. Bryan snapped his leg right above the ankle at the last round and looks to make a return to racing hopefully at Unadilla.
