KTM 's
Angel Atwell Wins the Morning for the
4th Straight Race
|
Union, SC (4/6/2009)
- FRE/KTM Factory ATV GNCC racer Adam
McGill put in an impressive ride to finish 2nd
overall at the Big Buck race after a battle for
the lead came down to the final turn of the race
against Chris Borich.
McGill had a decent 6th place start and moved
quickly through the pack to take over 4th by
the end of the first lap. Halfway into the second
lap he jumped into 3rd and then into the lead
after current front runner’s Bill Balance
and Taylor Kiser pulled off to pit. Chris Borich
who also chose not to pit stayed right with
McGill and the two begin a wheel to wheel battle
for the remainder of the race. On the final
lap the two riders came out of the woods side
by side. The final turn came where McGill went
wide and Borich went on the inside and just
barely edged out McGill for the win. “I
continue to get closer to a win every race and
hope to finish one position higher at the next
round,” commented McGill.

In the XC-2 Pro-Am class FRE/KTM rider and
current series point leader Josh Kirkland got
a great 2nd place start off the line. Unfortunately
he hit a tree on the first lap which knocked
him back to 6th. Brian Wolf held the lead and
Kirkland began his mission to track him down.
By the end of the second lap Kirkland had moved
back into 2nd place but was unable to make a
move for the lead and finished 2nd overall.
Angel Atwell continued her winning streak earning
another easy win aboard her KTM 525 XC at the
Big Buck race. Atwell got the holeshot and battled
shortly with Traci Cecco before pulling a gap
and continuing on to easily win the race.
