Washington, GA (3/19/2014) - DWT/ Jarrod McClure Racing’s (JMR) rider Jarrod McClure finished fifth in the ATV XC1 Pro class out of 18 total entries this past weekend at round 2 of the GNCC series in Washington GA. McClure’s team mate XC2 Pro Am racer Randy Hamilton secured a solid fourth place finish making it a great weekend for the Jarrod McClure Racing Team.

The JMR team spent some time at Durhamtown in between round 1 and 2 dialing in their DWT/ Elka / Teixiera Tech ATVs for the woods, and arrived at The General GNCC ready to do battle for top positions. “Florida left us pretty banged up but we regrouped up here in Georgia and are happy to be back in the woods and out of the sand,” said McClure.

The General is known to be one of the rougher tracks on the circuit, and it held true after seeing the morning tear the soft soil apart. Track conditions were near perfect with no rain in the forecast it looked like it was going to be a rough, hot, dry battle till the end.

DWT’s Jarrod McClure had a great jump off the start, but he lost some time in the first couple of field sections and went into the woods around 11th position.

“I had a great jump on the start and my DWT tires were hooking awesome out there. After Florida my race motor was hurt pretty bad, so I swapped it with a spare motor I had that was down on some power. I noticed it in the fields all day long!” said McClure.

McClure rode smart despite being underpowered and worked his way through the field trying to keep the leaders in sight. On lap 3 the top seven riders had gapped the field by a good margin and Jarrod was at the end of the train. After getting around Yoho, Jarrod had an intense last lap battle with Brain Wolf, finishing a few seconds ahead of him crossing the finish in the 5th position.

“I really put my head down on the last lap I had my sight set on the top five. My ATV worked flawless all day, but I really want to thank my trainer Marc Spataro with Moto Pro Training. This track was super demanding today, and I felt strong until the finish, my lap times showed that I kept a great pace. With very little seat time over the winter and mostly gym workouts it is really a testament to how good Marc’s program really is,” said McClure.

JMR’s XC2 Pro Am Racer Randy Hamilton put in a solid 4th place finish out of a 17-rider class. Hamilton had a mid pack start and battled his way through the field finishing only seconds behind 3rd place. He has his sights set on the podium for Steele Creek GNCC.
