GNCC Racing Partners with Westfield Powersports
XC1 Racer Jordan Ashburn Joins Team
The AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country Series (GNCC) presented by Maxxis, an AMA National Championship is pleased to announce a new partnership with Westfield Powersports. Serving as the newest associate sponsor, Westfield Powersports will back the GNCC Program through their team members and presence at various events.
Westfield Powersports is located in the middle of the GNCC Racing hotbed, sitting just north of Indianapolis. Known as one of the Midwest’s largest multi-line dealers, they support a total of 114 athletes in a variety of off-road racing disciplines.
Joining the Westfield Powersports team this year is XC1 pro racer, Jordan Ashburn. Nationally ranked number seven, Jordan will contend for the sought-after National Championship while competing aboard his 2016 KTM 350 SX-F.
“We couldn’t be happier to have Jordan join our program for 2016.” said Team Manager Jesse Johnson. “Jordan is the perfect candidate to help further our aspirations of building not only the biggest, but the best off-road race team in the United States. It’s become clear to us through our interactions with Jordan that he shares our core values around the balance of family, racing and business, and we are very excited to see where this year will take us.”
The 2016 GNCC series travels to Palatka, Florida March 5 and 6 for the season opening Moose Racing Wild Boar GNCC. The series continues along the East Coast before concluding in Crawfordsville, Indiana with the AMSOIL Ironman GNCC on October 29 and 30.
