New Moose Racing GNCC Contingency Program Totals
$31,000
MORGANTOWN, W. Va.
(February 1, 2008) – Moose Racing
continues its support for America’s largest
off-road racing series, the Can-Am Grand
National Cross Country Series, with the 2008
Moose Racing contingency program. Racers who
purchase gear at participating Parts
Unlimited/Moose Racing retailers and race at
least 10 GNCC events will receive free gloves,
as well as up to $200 in free race gear. The new
program will reward up to $15,000 in new gear
and gloves.
The new program is an addition to Moose
Racing’s existing contingency plan, which awards
GNCC Class Champions with a complete Moose
Racing outfit, consisting of Moose racing pants,
jersey and gloves, as well as THOR Racing boots.
With GNCC Series hosting 65 classes in 2008,
that’s an additional contingency package of
$26,000, bringing the total program to $31,000.
Complete information on the Moose Racing
Contingency program is available at the all-new
Can-Am GNCC Website,
www.gnccracing.com/contingency. The 2008
GNCC tour will feature over $3 million in
contingency and prizes, making it the richest
off-road series in the nation.
Beyond contingency, Parts Unlimited and Moose
Racing will support the sport by hosting four
dinner shows at the GNCC events in 2008. The
selected rounds are the Triton GNCC in
Melbourne, Florida, the Steele Creek GNCC in
Morganton, North Carolina, the Spartan GNCC in
Sparta, Kentucky, and the Ironman GNCC in
Crawfordsville, Indiana. In Florida, Parts
Unlimited will serve dinner on Monday, in North
Carolina and Indiana it will serve dinner on
Saturday, and in Kentucky it will serve dinner
on Friday. As always, the top Moose Racing pro
riders will serve the dinner to the racers,
including GNCC Champions David Knight and Bill
Ballance. Music and entertainment are also
planned for each event.
The 2008 Can-Am GNCC Series kicks off at the
Triton GNCC in Melbourne, Fla., with ATVs
hitting the trails on Sunday, March 2 and
