- Tuesday Toolbox: Atwell and CeccoOctober 21, 2008Honestly, no other class in GNCC Racing seems to offer the competitive balance that we see in the Women's ATV Class. Year after year the title goes down to the wire, and this year is no exception. Traci Cecco and Angel Atwell are basically tied in points coming down to the finale this weekend at the Klotz Ironman GNCC. Who will win? We talked to the two ladies to get their take on it all.
- Tuesday Toolbox: Scotty WatkinsOctober 14, 2008With new champion Thad DuVall moving out of the XC2 class, the door was open for someone new at Power Line Park. Turned out the someone new was someone who has been around, Monster Energy Kawasaki's Scott Watkins.
- Tuesday Toolbox: Morgan MossOctober 6, 2008Score one for the amateurs. At last weekend's Can-Am Unadilla GNCC, 200 C Schoolboy competitor Morgan Moss broke through to win the morning race bike overall. That's the first overall win by a non-sportsman class rider all year. Now Moss has the 200 C title locked up, so he's headed to the B class. Find out how this 16-year-old discovered hare scrambles, the GNCCs and success by reading on.
- Tuesday Toolbox: Chris BithellSeptember 30, 2008Let's put it simply: Chris Bithell is back. After a tough first season with the Warnert Racing Can-Am team, the young Pennsylvanian got back on track with a big overall ATV win at Unadilla over the weekend. To say the least, Chris is relieved. We called him today for an update.
- Tuesday Toolbox: Walker FowlerSeptember 23, 2008Where has Walker Fowler been this year? After becoming the first ever rider to win both Bike and ATV GNCC Overall Youth Titles, Walker was hoping for big things this season jumping onto bigger equipment. Riding Four-Stroke A Lites in bikes on a WR250F for the Am-Pro Yamaha team, and the Schoolboy ATV class on a GT Thunder Raptor 250, Walker was ready until an ankle injury nearly ended his season. We caught up with Walker to check his progress.
- Tuesday Toolbox with Adam McGillSeptember 16, 2008Adam McGill roared back into victory lane with a big win at the Moose Racing Snowshoe GNCC in his native West Virginia over the weekend. Unfortunately for Adam�s title hopes, the win followed some sub-par finishes at the last few rounds, which have put him way back in points. But the 21-year-old has learned a lot this year, and he thinks he is back to the form that pushed him to the front of the pack earlier in the season.
- Toolbox with .... Tim FarrSeptember 3, 2008Tim Farr is the man behind KTM's ATV project, as the four-time ATVA Grand National Champion spearheads the racing and development for the Austrian company. Farr just returned from the Pont du Vaux 12 Hour ATV endurance race in France, taking second overall along with Adam McGill and Taylor Kiser. Today Tim tells us about it.
- Toolbox with .... Johnny GallagherAugust 26, 2008Johnny Gallagher lives, sleeps, eats and breathes GNCC Racing. He comes from a GNCC Racing family, he works in the GNCC industry, and he's also one of the top riders in the ATV XC1 Pro Class. But in the past, it seems like Johnny G spent as much time helping friends race as he did help himself. This year, though, he's working harder, and gunning for the podium.
- Tuesday Toolbox with .... Carey DakuAugust 19, 2008Things have not gone to plan for Warnert Racing Can-Am's first-year GNCC effort in the XC1 ATV Class. With the much-hyped Can-Am DS450 to race and proven winners in Chris Jenks and Chris Bithell on board, the team should have been firing off wins and podiums all season. Instead, they're just trying to finish the races. What went wrong? What are they doing to fix it? We called Warnert Team Manager Carey Daku to find out.
- Tuesday Toolbox with .... Jason RainesAugust 12, 2008Five years ago, Jason Raines was supposed to take over GNCC Racing�until an unbelievable run of injuries kicked in. Jason broke his leg four times, and most thought he was done. But Jason doesn't give up, and he's back racing with his familiar Am-Pro Yamaha squad. What�s happening with Jason? We called him in the middle of a test session today in South Carolina.
- Toolbox with .... Aaron PlessingerAugust 5, 2008The son of two-time GNCC Champion Scott Plessinger, 12-year-old Aaron Plessinger has proven to be one of the fastest young GNCC racers and motocross racers in the country. Aaron has won every GNCC Youth race he's raced in this year, he just wrapped a solid week racing motocross at Loretta Lynn's. Between that busy schedule, he found time for us.
- Tuesday Toolbox .... Vanja KollmannJuly 22, 2008To the competiton in the Women's bike class, it sure seemed like Vanja Kollman came out of nowhere. The Swedish rider came to the U.S. last month for a little riding vacation, and after racing two GNCCs, she ended up with two wins! When Vanja's not riding, she's training troops in the Swedish Military to detect bombs, so maybe riding a GNCC course is easy to her. Is it? We called her to find out.
