Highlight Episodes to Air
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (June 1, 2018) – Relive all the action with a FULL hour of GNCC Racing on NBCSN This Sunday! Tune in to NBCSN this Sunday, June 3 from 3:00 – 4:00 p.m. ET for AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country’s (GNCC) round four and five – the FMF Steele Creek ATV highlight show and CST Tires Camp Coker Bullet bike highlight show.
Round four, FMF Steele Creek took place Saturday, April 7 in Morganton, North Carolina. The Steele Creek GNCC is a track that is well known to turn your race plans upside down, and this year’s race would prove to be just another one in the long list of historic finishes that pad the reputation.
Walker Fowler looked to have things under control during the first half of the two-hour race, however a mistake would land him stuck in rutted section along with AmPro Yamaha’s Cole Richardson who was running an impressive second. These mistakes gave Adam McGill an open door to overtake the Yamaha riders in one pass and cross the line first to earn his first win of the 2018 season.
Round five continued on Sunday, April 22, with the third annual CST Tires Camp Coker Bullet GNCC. When the checkered flag flew at Moree’s Sportsman’s Preserve it was Kailub Russell taking his fourth win of the season.
Russell would pass Duvall and push ahead for a six second gap as they came through timing and scoring on lap one. K. Russell and Duvall continued to break away from the rest of the XC1 Open Pro field just as R. Russell and Beta USA’s Jordan Ashburn were fighting forward.
When the checkered flag flew, it was K. Russell just .620 seconds ahead of Duvall. After three-hours of wheel-to-wheel racing the two shared a pat on the back from one another after crossing the finish line.
