2015 GNCC Racing
Mountain Ridge - Round 11
Somerset, PA (10/4/2015) - The Car-Mate Mountain Ridge GNCC made for an exciting day of racing at the 11th round of the 2015 AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country series (GNCC), presented my Maxxis, and AMA National Championship. N-Fab/AmPro Yamaha/Maxxis/Lonestar's Walker Fowler captured yet another win, adding valuable points to his current Overall National Championship lead. In the XC2 Pro Am class, Fowler's teammate, Cole Richardson, clinched the XC2 Pro Am championship two rounds early here at Mountain Ridge.

As the green flag dropped for the XC1 Pro ATV race, it was Showhauler/Maxxis/Cycle Barn's Landon Wolfe who claimed the $250 AMSOIL Holeshot Award, and led the pack into the opening lap of racing. The track conditions were less than desirable due to the substantial amount of rainfall from Hurricane Juaquin, allowing for Fowler to quickly take over the lead position.

As the race wore on, Fowler held onto a consistent first place throughout with little pressure until the white flag lap when McGill picked up the pace.

"You can't win the championship on a day like today, but you can lose it quickly," said Fowler. "McGill started pushing on that last lap and I knew it would either be good or bad. He made up a lot of time and got within striking distance right when my hands went numb. Thankfully things got quite and I was able to cross the finish line first."

Unfortunately McGill had suffered a small bobble, causing the silence, and allowing Fowler to pull ahead. In the end, there would be a ten second gap between first and second as they crossed the finish line.

"I made a good push to catch Fowler on the last lap and was within five second of him," said McGill. "I miscalculated the front end, clipped a tree, and dumped it. Hats off to Walker for the overall, but I'll be ready for Powerline Park and looking for the win there."
