Somerset, PA (7/8/2008) -
FRE KTM Factory rider Taylor Kiser earned 5th
overall at round 9 of the GNCC Series at Mountain
Ridge Park.
Kiser adapted well to the rough and technical
track starting within the top five and maintaining
that spot the duration of the race. His teammate,
Adam McGill, was not far back off the start
running inside the top ten.
Both Kiser and McGill had a good first few
laps until bad luck struck McGill when he broke
his shifter on a large rock. McGill rode as
best as he could while stuck in 2nd gear until
he made it to the pits where the KTM crew provided
him with a new shift lever. He pulled back on
to the course dropping approximately five positions.
In an attempt to make up time, McGill came upon
the dreaded rock section once more and tried
increasing his speed as he plowed through the
boulders. Unfortunately his left front wheel
got stuck in between two rocks as he was speeding
through which sent McGill over the bars while
cracking the wheel. Once recovered, he again
visited the pits to repair the damage. With

little time left in the race he charged through
the pack to salvage as many positions as he
could and eventually crossed the line in 15th.
Kiser rode a smooth and consistent race to finish
a solid 5th place overall.
The GNCC Series will now take a two month break.
The next round is scheduled for September 13-14,
2008 in Snowshoe, WV.
