Springville, IN (5/15/2016) - The
sixth round of the 2016 AMSOIL Grand National Cross
Country (GNCC) Series presented by Maxxis, an AMA
National Championship, took place today, May 14,
with the Limestone 100 GNCC in Springville, Indiana.
With an abundance of rain taking place prior to
the race, the track conditions were muddy creating
the ultimate GNCC event. After battling the rough
and rugged circumstances it was CST / LSR / Induction
Solutions / DeRisi / SG / Tire Blocks' Adam McGill
who would cross the finish line first after making
a last turn pass for the overall win.

Once the green flag waved for the 1 p.m. Pro
race it was N-Fab / Maxxis / AmPro Yamaha / Lonestar
/ MXP's Walker Fowler who jumped out to the early
lead earning himself the $250 Wiseco XC1 Holeshot
Award. However, Maxxis/Fly Racing/HMF/Ye Olde
Cycle Barn/Suzuki's Chris Borich was right on
his rear tires.

Coastal Racing/MSR/Maxxis-backed Brycen Neal
would suffer from a dead last start, but worked
his way into third by the time they entered the
woods. As they checked through timing and scoring
for the first time, Fowler continued to hold the
lead with his teammate Cole Richardson following
in second and Borich in third.

Fowler would continue to lead throughout the
second lap, but would quickly begin to feel the
pressure from Borich. While the battle for the
lead was shaping up, McGill was busy working his
way up from a ninth place start. By the second
lap McGill found himself in the mix for the lead
with Fowler and Borich. As the race wore on, Borich
would finally work his way around the defending
champion Fowler as he lead the pack.

"I was riding really cautious with the track
conditions," said Fowler. "The whole
race you just had to pick a section and go fast
to avoid getting stuck. There were lappers everywhere
with lines going all over the place. It was a
game of picking and choosing, but luck was on
my side and it all paid off today."
