"Yadkin Valley
Stomp" GNCC Pro ATV Race Report
::Continued::
Pro Rookie
Alba Action's Ryan Lane records a career
best finish with 4th Overall as this
long time GNCC racer is really beginning
to shine among the Pro Ranks
Still, Ballance extends his GNCC Series points
lead over KTM’s Adam McGill, who ended
up fifth. Third went to McClure, his first-ever
XC1 Pro Class podium finish.
“It’s hard racing against these
guys,” said McClure. “They have
the big trucks and the equipment, we just have
our little trailer, but we do what we can. Today
I had a good start and I just stayed up there
all day, didn’t make many big mistakes.”
Ryan Lane scored his best finish of the season
with fourth, ahead of McGill. Rockstar Yoshimura
Suzuki’s Chris Borich turned in an amazing
ride after crashing in turn one, shaking off
the pain, and making up nearly a minute of time
to fight through the pack. Next came National
Guard Honda’s William Yokley, who was
fighting a clogged filter in the dust. KTM’s
Taylor Kiser, XCBob.com’s Matt Smiley
and Excell Motorsports’ Santo DeRisi rounded
out the top ten.
KTM's Taylor
Kiser fights he way through the dust
to an 8th place finish with KTM's Adam
McGill securing a Top 5 finish, which
now has him 3rd in points and 30 points
behind Bill Ballance
Suzuki's
Chris Borich grabs the 6th spot, which
was his best finish since his Podium
at Loretta's, but he maintains a Top
5 Overall and is known to come on strong
toward the end of the season
Yamaha’s Brandon Sommers grabbed the
ITP Holeshot Award and led the first lap, but
a crash dropped him back to 11th.
