Bryan Buckhannon Maintains GNCC 4x4 Pro ATV Points Leads

Bryan Buckhannon scored his 10th straight GNCC 4x4 Pro Podium

Buckhannon lost course at the start of the event, in the woods, and drove through the field to net the third spot on the box. “I made a mistake and nearly bypassed the hill climb in the woods,” explained Buckhannon. “I hit the brakes, and rode onto the hill on a funny angle. I got hung up for a minute. From there on out, I had to chase through the class. I got up to fourth on the second lap. Then I took third, but I just couldn’t work through traffic.

“I felt good and fast,” added Buckhannon. “The Can-Am was working well. I had no excuse. It just wasn’t for me to win that day. We’ll take that third-place finish and get those valuable points. We have three races left. I’m fired up and more determined than ever.”

GNCC returned to competition after the summer break and Buckhannon was primed for another podium. While enjoying the time off, Buckhannon also spent a lot of time on the track, getting his Can-Am dialed in for the last four races of the 2015 GNCC season.

“The summer break went well; I got to catch up with my family and working at my regular job at Tucker Rocky,” said Buckhannon. “We also got some practice in. I ran the Heartland Challenge. That was fun. We tried some setup changes there. We also raced a couple of local events, so I felt good going into this race. We made a lot of improvements on the bike from the first half of the season. Physically this was the best I’ve really felt all year. I felt fast and I was ready for the battle.”

Buckhannon said his Can-Am is better than ever going into the final races of the season and he is ready to earn the championship. He continues to hold the points lead by 14 markers over second place.

“The Can-Am was working great; we just couldn’t make up the time,” said Buckhannon. “One small mistake just cost us several minutes in the end. I can’t remember ever being on such good equipment. I’m a little disappointed in the results, but watch the fire in the last three rounds.”

Buckhannon’s nephew, also named Bryan, is still trying to outrun a streak of bad luck in the Youth Class, but he isn’t about to give up. “We’ve changed everything in the world, but we’re just having trouble with that machine,” said Buckhannon. “We’ve just had zero luck. He’ll bounce back. He’s a tough kid.”

Buckhannon will attempt to keep his podium streak alive with another win when GNCC hits Central City, Pa. for the Car-Mate Mountain Ridge race, Round 11 of the title chase, October 3rd
