As the green flag dropped for the highly anticipated
season finale, CST / LSR / Induction Solutions
/ DeRisi / SG / Tire Blocks-backed Adam McGill
wasted no time in making his way to the front
and claiming the $250 Wiseco XC1 Pro Holeshot
Award. McGill immediately felt pressure from Maxxis/Fly
Racing/HMF/Ye Olde Cycle Barn/Suzuki’s Chris Borich
and Coastal Racing/MSR/Maxxis’ Brycen Neal who
were on his back tires as the trio checked through
timing and scoring for the first time.

CST's Adam McGill
jumped out to the early lead to grab the
$250 Wiseco Holeshot Award
|
The second lap played in favor of McGill who
began to have some breathing room where he held
a ten second lead over Neal who had moved into
the second place position. Borich remained in
the picture but seemed to be having some issues.

|
Chris Borich
claimed his 8th GNCC podium finish of
the season with a 2nd place finish at
the Ironman season finale
|
As the teams began their pits stops on the second
lap, Borich unmounted from his quad to adjust
his shock. Once the six-time champion was back
in action he set his sights on making up lost
time and taking over the lead. Just one lap later,
Neal came into the pits with a broken front end
bracket.

|
Jarrod McClure ran
away from the pack as he built a nearly
three minute lead over second place
|
Their misfortunes allowed an open spot for JMR
/ ATVriders.com / DWT’s Jarrod McClure who took
full advantage of the opportunity to display his
talent. With a clear track McClure quickly caught
up to McGill. The two began battling it out until
McGill’s spindle broke. As McGill made his way
off the track, McClure continued to the finish
line virtually untouched. McClure would end up
crossing the finish victorious for the first time
this season, and Borich followed nearly three
minutes behind him.

Jarrod McClure earned
his first overall win of the year, which
boosted him from 6th to 4th place in the
points championship
