Traci Cecco Wraps Up 2006 GNCC Women's Championship |
Cypress, CA (6/29/2006) - Traci Cecco
won her seventh race of the year and wrapped up
the 2006 GNCC ATV women’s championship on
Saturday, June 24 in McHenry, Maryland. With four
races left in the series, the YFZ450 rider has
accumulated 176 points and an unassailable lead
over Angel Atwell, also on a YFZ450. Including
Cecco and Atwell’s machines, Yamahas accounted
for six of the top 10 finishers in the women’s
event.
The morning race was held at The Wisp, a ski resort
noted for its steep, rocky terrain. “It was a
good day,” Cecco said afterwards. “I pulled
the holeshot, won the women’s race, took the overall
win and the championship. This is the second race in
a row that has gone so well. I attribute it to my bike
always coming to the track well prepared. I do my training,
but GNCC is also mental and you have to have your head
on right.”
