GNCC Racing

Ruckle Race Report from Loretta Lynn's

Hey Everyone Its Cody Ruckle with my race report from round 6 of the Parts Unlimited Loretta Lynn's GNCC from Hurricane Mills, TN. It started out to be a great weekend of racing until a line of storms moved through the area about 45 minutes before race time. The rain had about stopped when I headed to the line on my YZ 125 dressed in my Fly gear. I was really excited to be back at Loretta’s, but I was a little disappointed that we didn't run the motocross track. The track conditions were really slick and the second turn was a disaster, but my Kenda tires hooked right up.

My dad told me to take it easy, layback and get feel for the track conditions. So, that is exactly what I did for the first two laps. Once I got into my grove and the conditions improved, I charged to the end, riding smart and picking good lines, gaining overall positions with each lap. I ended my race with a 1st in the class and a 44th overall. My best overall finish of the season so far!!! I can't wait until the next round at Mountaineer Run on May 25, because it is my hometown race. I raced my first race on a 50 there. Hopefully I will have a big cheering section with family and friends coming out to watch. So if you come to town early, look me up.

I would like to thank God for keeping me safe, Mom and Dad, Ryan Inmon, Luke Miller, Layne Michael, Colton Cumpston and Gary Fridley for riding with me. Thanks to all my sponsors: Raines Riding University/Atlas Yamaha/Offroadviking.com, Fly Racing, GE, YamahaMotor Corp, Yamalube, GYTR, Kenda Tires, FMF, Factory Connection, Flat tire Defenders, Endro Enginering, Rekluse, IMS, GPR Stabilizers, TM Designworks,Gaerne Boots, Wiseco, AM Pro, DP Brakes, Stickman Graphx, Unabiker, Fast Co Flexx Handlebars,  Scott USA, Mad Man Cleaning Solution, Titan Industrial,  CV products, Bill Dailey.
