Powerline Park GNCC
With near perfect conditions, St. Clairsville's
event appeared as if it could be one of the best
races all year. There was some awesome racing all
weekend leading up to the Main bike event. The
only thing that could make this weekend better
would be to come away with a win. As fate would
have it, thats exactly what happened! -------------
-------At the 1:00 start things seemed to go
fairly well for me. Although i did not get the
jump i usually get to come away with another
holeshot, i did put myself in a top position that
was a solid foundation to build on within the next
3hours. For the first 2 laps i actually ran in 6th
place but i could see the leaders, so i didnt fret
too much about being there. It actually helped me
to gain my composure and focus on racing the
track. By the third lap i had started to work my
way to the front passing up to first by the next
to last lap. I would lose the position for a few
miles but I regained it halway through the last
lap. From that point on I pushed to pull a small
gap and was successful in getting a cushion that i
would hold until the finish. With that Ride I had
also taken Overall Ameteur Honors is I was
immediatly escorted to the Podium to Celebrate
with the top 3 Pro Riders. I was proud to
represent everyone who has supported me throughout
this season, and while being interviewed gave a
shout out to all of those sponsors that mean so
much to me. Now going into the Final round of GNCC
racing this year, i am debating on moving to the
Pro Ranks to have some fun up there. This would
also give me a chance to better my Overall
position for the year, where i am currently ranked
15th.
