Defending
GNCC Champion

Snowshoe, WV (6/27/2007) - Bill Ballance
took a second straight win with his victory at the Snowshoe
GNCC ATV race, consolidating his lead for the overall
title. Riders on Razrs swept the podium at the event,
with Chris Borich in second place and Matt Smiley taking
third. The first-ever Snowshoe GNCC ATV was held June
23 in Snowshoe, West Virginia.
Ballance won by overcoming a muddy, rock-strewn course
that gnccracing.com called “almost impassable”
in sections. “There was probably three miles of
the track out there that was just as gnarly as probably
anything we ever see on any track throughout the whole
season,” Ballance told gnccracing.com. “At
one time there was five or six of us together, I think
Chris and Matt and Bithell, and we come into that one
section and everybody started splitting off and going
different directions, and I picked a line and thought,
‘Oh Lord, this is way out of the way, I’m
getting ready to get passed by a bunch of people,’
and wound up getting on through it, and wound up being
an easier but longer line and I didn’t get hung
up, and I think I got around those guys right there.
I just put my head down and started pushing.”
Maxxis gained its 21st straight Holeshot Award when
Borich took the lead at the start of the race. Chris
Jenks took seventh place, and Brandon Sommers, who scored
an overall top ten finish with ninth place, took his
seventh Pro Am victory of the season.
Maxxis congratulates defending GNCC ATV champ Bill
Ballance, and thanks all of its sponsored riders for
proving that the performance and durability of Razrs
are second to none.
