Team UXC Racing Podiums Again at GNCC Round 11
Swift Takes Win, Trantham third on Scrambler 850

Team UXC Racing continued their winning ways this past weekend at GNCC Round 11, in Central City, Penn.

With rainy, cool conditions, the team knew the course would be challenging. Michael Swift would leave the starting line in fourth with teammate Kevin Trantham in seventh. Swift would gain on the field and move into second by the start of lap two; while Trantham would need to pit for goggles due to the muddy conditions, which left him at the end of the pack.

Swift would battle the leader the last three laps, changing positions several times, but finally passing him for good three miles before the finish for his fourth Pro 4x4 win of the season and the overall win for the morning. Trantham would battle hard to make up for pitting on the first lap and finish a respectable third.

Team UXC racer Don Higbee also put in a great race  taking another podium with a third place finish in the 4x4 40+ Class. Graham Widdicombe claimed a top five position in the A/B 4x4 Class.
