GBC Motorsports Racers Leave a Mark on GNCC in 2012
Friday, November 16, 2012 | 2:00 PM
Anaheim, Calif. - With the dust finally settled on the 13 rounds of GNCC racing GBC Motorsports is proud to announce the achievements of our team riders in 2012.
Leading the way is BNR Motorsports XC1 rider Kevin Yoho, who earned a career best 7th place position and will be adorning his machine with the Overall #7 for next year. Closely behind Yoho is longtime GBC racer Johnny Gallagher, whose 8th place XC1 and Overall ranking are his best season result since 1998. Bryan Cook only campaigned a limited schedule of five rounds but still managed enough points to be ranked 16th Overall amongst the elite ATV racers in the United States. Eric Hoyland earned 4th in the XC2 class and will move up to XC1 in 2013 with the Overall #13.
Brycen Neal earned the first of GBC’s four class championships by topping the hotly contested College A class. Brycen also earned several Amateur Overalls throughout the year, and a very impressive #17 in the Overall numbers for 2013 as he graduates to the XC2 ranks. Proving that GBC has a firm grasp on the up-and-comers, Jay Shadron added another class championship in the College B division. If his track records holds true, Jay will certainly be one to watch in the A class next season.
New to the GBC Motorsports family for 2012, Bryan Buckhannon dominated the premier 4x4 Open class championship with nine class wins. Bryan also earned the Overall #202, ranking him as the 2nd best AM racer and Top Utility machine. Forrest Whorton rounded out the class titles for GBC with a staggering 11 race victories in the 4x4 Senior division to earn his third career GNCC championship.
The GNCC awards banquet will take place January 11-12 at the Waterfront Place Hotel in Morgantown, West Virginia. GBC Motorsports is proud to support GNCC racing and looks forward to another successful year in 2013. A tentative 2013 GNCC schedule has been posted at http://www.gnccracing.com/schedule/2013-series-schedule.
