Borich Takes 2nd Straight GNCC ATV Win
5/18/2009In a closely fought contest, Chris Borich battled his way to a fourth GNCC win, maintaining his lead in the race for the title. Riding Razrs, Borich won the Mountain Ridge GNCC, held May 16 in Somerset, Pennsylvania.
Trading the lead with another rider throughout the race, Borich overcame last-minute engine troubles and crossed the finish line with a two-second margin of victory. “I knew it was barely gonna' hold on; all I could do was dump the clutch and hope it kept pulling," he told gnccracing.com. Borich now has 161 points overall, 12 more than the next rider.
He was joined on the podium by fellow Maxxis rider Brandon Sommers, in third place. Taylor Kiser, defending champ Bill Ballance and Bryan Cook took the fourth through sixth place spots, while Donald Ockerman grabbed eighth place.
Maxxis congratulates Chris Borich on his victory and thanks all of these riders for their fine performances.
