The Mountaineer GNCC course features rocks, rocks
and more rocks! To do well here, you must be cautious
and choose your lines carefully. The area received
rain on Thursday and Friday, and by race day,
the track was almost perfect. There was no mud,
no dust, low humidity and temperature in the 70s.
The Polaris Coastal National Guard team of William
Yokley and Scott Kiger got decent starts and entered
the woods in 3rd and 4th places. At the end of
lap 1, they were 10th and 13th respectively, mainly
due to the later rows making up corrected time
as the machines got bunched up trying to navigate
the new course.
As things started to spread out, both William
and Scott got in a good rhythm, and put in some
fast, consistent laps. Lapped traffic today was
mostly cooperative, and did a good job allowing
the faster cars by. As always though, there were
instances of bumping and banging just to make
things interesting. On lap 7 of the 8 lap race,
William had the lead and Scott was in 3rd place
on this 4 mile course. They held the positions
to the finish, with both cars finishing on the
podium.

William said, “Having Tire Balls today
was a necessity, we would not have made one lap
without them, and they helped the suspension by
soaking up the big hits on all the rocks!”
Both Polaris RZR XP 900s ran strong to the finish,
as usual!
The GNCC Side by Side Series will take a summer
break until the Powerline Park event in St. Clairsville,
Ohio on October 12. William Yokley is first in
series points and Scott Kiger is 3rd, only 10
points back. They will be ready to go when the
series resumes.
