XC1 Pro ATV Class

Walker Fowler returned for Round 5 recharged and ready for action as he sat patiently awaiting the start of the XC1 class race at X-Factor Whitetails GNCC. Fowler was off to an excellent start early on as he was able to secure the Wiseco Holeshot on the muddy terrains of Indiana. As the race progressed, Fowler was able to separate himself from the congested pack and gain a significant lead, but later found himself engaged in battle for the top spot after falling back to a 2nd place position at the start of lap three. After making a few quick adjustments and finding his rhythm, Fowler once again stole the lead and was able to cross the finish line with his first win at X-Factor Whitetails. Fowler’s victory also marks his 49th overall career win and 4th win of the season, bringing his points lead to 36 as he continues his “Strive for 5” campaign. GBC Motorsports sponsored racers Cole Richardson, Westley Wolfe, Joshua Merritt, Devon Feehan and Johnny Gallagher all rounded off the top 10 class finishes for the XC1 Pro class. Congratulations to all of our sponsored racers on their amazing performances! GBC Motorsports XC1 class racers all compete on XC-Masters and Ground Buster 3 performance tires.
